Participation & Community
We are passionate about & experienced in making work with young people & leading community projects.
We create devised performances with young people, in partnership with organisations including Wiltshire Council’s Local Youth Network & Swindon Libraries, & lead weekly youth theatre sessions at Pound Arts. We regularly collaborate with Malmesbury Carnival and Fruitful Malmesbury to make work with the local community. We co-created & co-lead Malmesbury Community Radio, an inclusive online radio station and work with Malmesbury Live Arts to programme & promote theatre events.
