The Voices Leadership Team had an idea: write a play that would help people understand what it's like to be in care.
With the leadership of Sarasvati Transformative Theatre, and the participation of youth in and from care, 'Giving Voice' has been created.
After you've seen the play through once, the actors will re-do a few scenes so that you can stop the action and change the story.
Refreshments will be provided.
