Legislative theatre is an innovative and creative method of engaging communities in social issues and co-creating policy changes and service design improvements.

It’s about helping the “unheard” to have a voice and, through collaborative role play and sketches, building empathy with all perspectives. Legislative theatre can break down traditional power hierarchies to engage in meaningful dialogue that leads to improved relationships, solutions and lasting change.

Theatre practitioner Tony Cealy has worked in sectors such as criminal justice, community arts, local authority, education and social services. In this inspiring workshop, you will explore issues of power, decision-making and how to spark creative structural change within institutions and systems.
