Therapeutic Theatre, Performances and Workshops

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to deepen your teams understanding of early trauma in a creative, playful way where your not starring in from of a PowerPoint for hours in a day.

If you have an idea I will create a bespoke affordable workshop for you and your team. Let's turn theory into something more.

Therapeutic Theatre Performances & Workshops

Therapeutic Theatre gives an opportunity for groups and individuals to explore their own stories at a safe distance working towards discovery and the healing process.

Lucy also devises and performs her own performance pieces individually, with groups and collaborative ensemble pieces for trainings and conferences.

Therapeutic theatre performances allows attendees a safe space to explore trauma, unconscious bias and racialised trauma held in the mind, body and soul. Each bespoke piece created produces a shared and lived experiences addressing issues around mental health, early developmental trauma, racialised trauma, privilege and Black Joy.
