<p class="MsoNormal">As part of our contribution to Refugee Week 2022 we have been working with academic Roda Madziva, Nottingham and Notts Refugee Forum and other partners to create a performance piece that reflects the lived experience of those making a new
start in the UK. The piece has been scripted by local playwright Andy Barrett.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have an interest in migration issues, community theatre, or co-production we welcome you to join us this Saturday to see the result of the collaboration. Details below –
