DISRUPT FESTIVAL 2021

Handsworth young people to perform at national festival

DISRUPT Festival 2021 - So exciting that young people from Handsworth will be performing in this national festival! Fun and engaging 'Play The Part' youth drama activities happening this year. DISRUPT was a festival created in partnership with Barbican, Culture, Health and Wellbeing Alliance and Guildhall School of Music & Drama Museum of London. Working in partnership with Blue Orange Theatre the project aimed to inspire local youth action and help young people deal with the social and emotional issues they were experiencing relating to COVID-19. We partnered with young people (12-16) with high quality performing arts practitioners to devise theatre from their own experiences and empower their collective voice.
