A new show produced in conjunction with NewVIc Sixth Form College

This show premiered during NSDF 21 (27th March - 2nd April 2021).

It is now available on demand. Please log in or register to access this show.

Devised by the company and drawing on life experiences of the cast, Seen weaves together storytelling, spoken word and physical theatre to explore how it feels to be a young person in the here and now. Unsettling and honest, it is both a cry to be understood and a manifesto for a better future.
