Rupture
A compelling one-woman show, Rupture was developed in collaboration with women at HMP Low Newton and explores their real-life experiences of being mothers in prison. The play invites you into the world of Destiny, a mother navigating the lived reality of incarceration and motherhood.
Each year, we join the global movement for the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. A United Nations campaign that unites and amplifies voices across the world to end violence against women and girls. Through theatre, storytelling, and activism, we shine a light on injustice and call for revolution and lasting change.
