Afloat

Work:: Afloat (S01502682757)

A one hour piece of Theatre for Social Change in partnership with Asylum Link, it is a show about English people being put in the situation of having to flee to understand and develop empathy for people in the asylum process. The piece is created by a group of professional artists working with artists and performers currently seeking asylum/ with previous experience of seeking asylum, and bravely shines a light on a very broken system. Inspired by real stories of seeking asylum, using a combination of striking visuals, movement and comedy, this paradoxical theatrical journey invites audiences to join in a Liverpool families search for asylum in a strange and fictional country. We want to engage as many local organisations, charities, schools and colleges as possible.
