The most memorable, engaging, satisfying and self-questioning [theatre in education work I was involved with while at school] was a program of work done by….Theatr Fforwm Cymru……I think it was memorable for me because we were being asked to take action, we were being asked to take responsibility and our opinions were honestly being asked for – something that I wasn’t used to.

If other young people could equal the amount of confidence, skills and pure pleasure that I have received so far from attending [young people’s forum theatre group sessions facilitated by ThFfC] then they too will feel like me that they are becoming active members of their society. [It] is a safe environment where I feel comfortable challenging my perceptions of people, government and myself.

Working with Theatr Fforwm Cymru was a powerful and enriching experience. Praxis has found a partner who understands both theory and practice of empowerment from which there are long and lasting benefits for communities and their leaders. They have an intuition for the experience of displaced people arising from a capacity to listen, empathise and challenge. They are able to reflect back an authentic story to the participants and in turn receive the strength of a community which is understood and empowered to articulate its own demands.
