This drama workshop is co-led by activist actors who came to the UK as unaccompanied child refugees and who now draw on their lived experience to lead workshops that represent, validate and share what it’s like to be newly arrived in Britain.

This fun session draws on themes from Phosphoros Theatre’s show Pizza Shop Heroes. They will use storytelling, creative writing and play to explore migration, friendship and life in the UK.
This workshop is aimed at refugee youth and ESOL projects.

Part of Journeys Festival International Manchester.
