Resilience Programme 2021
We asked our audiences what the theme of our work should be for 2021 and the resounding answer was ‘Resilience’. We’ll be responding directly to the mental health challenges that we’ve all faced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
We’ll be partnering with schools, community groups and industry professionals to get creative, develop coping mechanisms and find our voices as we build resilience over the next 12 months.
The workshops outlined below will form the ideas and inspiration for two professional plays which will be performed at the All In The Mind Festival in September 2021, giving a voice and a platform to our audience’s lived experiences of mental health.
The Recovery Project
Using theatre to aid the recovery of young people’s mental health.
We’re offering practical theatre-based workshops for schools in Spring/Summer 2021 that are safe, and delivered by specialist youth practitioners.
The Gathering Project
Working with groups across Hampshire our community programme explores themes of loss and isolation and how we can rebuild and recover through creative activity.
All in the Mind Festival
The leading outdoor mental health arts festival in the UK.
We take over Eastrop Park for the day with an explosion of theatre, dance, music, spoken word and interactive activities.
