Breaking the Chain (knife crime/youth violence)

‘Breaking the Chain’ is a hard-hitting applied theatre production that aims to raise awareness, kick-start conversations and build resilience around youth violence – with a focus on knife crime – as part of a public health approach to tackling the issue – an issue that is seeing young people seriously hurt and, all too often, killed on the streets of our towns and cities.

County Lines (CCE/drug trafficking)

Meet Dex. He’s a nice guy. He’ll offer you money. He’ll offer you drugs. He’ll be generous. He’ll make you feel important. He’ll make you feel part of something. He’ll make your life exciting. He’ll do whatever it takes to get you working for him and his mates… and when you do…

Crashing (CSE/boys & young men)

‘Crashing‘ tells the story of 15 year old Eddie who, whilst going through hard times met Michael. Michael was kind, good fun and offered Eddie the chance to stay at a flat above his shop whenever things at home were a bit rough, but unfortunately Michael had another agenda.
