All Are punished
'All Are Punished' is a powerful new workshop programme created in partnership with knife crime awareness charity 'The JJ Effect' and A Place for Us Theatre company of Romeo & Juliet (on outdoor tour this summer) which also explores the themes of knife crime and gang violence.
The workshop is designed to engage young people, secondary school age in vital conversations around the impact of knife crime, drawing connections between real life experience (The JJ Effect) and Shakespeare's timeless tragedy (R&J - A Place for Us). The workshop also offers a safe, creative space for discussion, reflection and engagement with relevant themes.
As the workshop is funded by the Community Fund, it is open to young people and their families and must take place after school hours.
