Theatr Clwyd’s Creative Engagement team, makers of the award-winning Justice in a Day and Conner’s Time are returning to North Wales secondary schools with a new production – Consent.  ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Funded by Flintshire Integrated Youth Provision, Consent tours a number of local secondary schools including Hawarden High School, Castell Alun High School and St David’s School in Saltney. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

This interactive workshop, using live performance explores issues arising from sexual consent. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

In a safe and supportive environment, young people in year 9 will be exploring what makes a healthy relationship, the effects of alcohol and drugs on decision making, and how the law works in relation to consent. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The young people will be presented with a scenario performed by professional actors of a night out that ‘gets out of hand’ and the consequences for all those involved. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Each performance will be supported by a school nurse/youth worker and a member of the Integrated Youth Provision Team.  ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Consent is directed by Theatr Clwyd’s Creative Engagement Associate Emyr John (pictured above) and is performed by Lisa Angharad, Anni Dafydd and Sion Emyr.  ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
