Development history
Between 2018 and 2019, we facilitated weekly sessions in devising and experimental performance as part of the Yardlings: Bigger programme at The Yard Theatre in Hackney Wick, London. Collaborating with 20 young people aged 7-11, we created OBSESSION PARTY, a one-night-only performance presented for the public on the professional main stage at The Yard.
