NARRATIVE
| The aim of IEXIST was to provide a space for our cohort to creatively express themselves in a safe non- judgemental environment, supported by mental health professionals and trained facilitators, interrogating identity, self-care, lineage and heritage within a rapidly shifting societal paradigm. During the project they would discuss their experiences in the world, develop a personal care plan and co-create a performance piece to communicate their experiences to the public. The hoped for outcomes and outputs of this are detailed above. Taken as a whole the project was a successful pilot of a challenging model choosing to tackle a difcult and needed area in an innovative way. Key Learnings: - RETENTION: retention over a long project period was a challenge and though we met more participants than we expected we did not retain the aimed for 12. We believe a slight shift in delivery length in the future will rectify this - THERAPIST: the use and employment of a therapist was absolutely key to ensuring a duty of a care to participants was fulflled. The iniyial discussions touched on unresolved traumatic experiences and the availability of a trained ipartial therapist to the process was key to keeping the project safe and stable, - DELIVERY LENGTH: given the intensity of the subject matter a shorter more intensive delivery time would have helped to concentrate work and help with retention and attendance of participants. This would have supported better outcomes for participants and put less pressure on the delivery team, who spent many hours ensuring participants were retained. In the next iteration we would look to trial an intensive delivery section with a longer period of adhoc support after the delivery. - PERFORMANCES: we committed in our proposal to run three performances in outdoor spaces as the culmination of the project. Early in the process it became clear that this would not be suitable for the type of work that cohort were producing, which focused on more traditional performance. As a result, we were limited to two theatre based performances. There are currently plans for the performance to be run again in the school of one of the participants but, due to the lead facilitators health, we have not been able to deliver this yet. - LEAD FACILITATOR SUPPORT: the lead facilitator lives with a serious condition and disability which can ‘fare- up’ without warning. During delivery the condition was very active. They dealt with the challenges this presented professionally and did not let it afect the quality of provision they gave to the cohort. However, the project should have been able to provide more support for them and this will be accounted for in any future project budget and proposal. CONCLUSION |

|---|---|---|
CONCLUSION
We believe the project was a well-run pilot, delivering a needed engagement in an under-served space. Participants worked within a supportive environment to unpick personal and societal issues that effected them directly and were given quality support to turn those thoughts and experiences into creative work. Every participant rated the delivery as ‘Excellent’ and highlighted the benefit and importance of therapy, of the facilitators cultural background, of being equipped with coping strategies by the project and of how supported they felt throughout. All these are specific design choices in the project and will be retained.
With some small alterations to the project design we believe that we can improve the outcomes for all participants and solidify this practice into a scalable and repeatable model.

NARRATIVE
ACHIEVEMENTS AND OUTCOMES
-
NYA: At the opening run at Leeds Playhouse the Director of the NYA attended and took part in a robust post show conversation. Over the subsequent weeks Leigh became a vocal advocate for the show
-
Creative Associates joining rehearsals: As a part of our rehearsal process we opened a ZOOM room to all our Creative Associates (Kirsty Anne, Naala Lartey, Lakeisha Lynch Stevens, Miguel Umba, Carlos Ossa, Anne Langford) so they could watch rehearsals and talk with the team. This really served to engage our CA's and introduce them to each other. It also informed the production with a massively various set of voices - Relationship with Leeds: The working relationship with LP was smooth and supportive with TWP providing a sell-out show for their studio. James Brining attended with the chair of their board of trustees. It is a relationship that can be grown in the future - Relationship with Bush: The Bush stepped in on request when Vaults was cancelled and provided us with both a home that supported the work and the company and an audience interested int he sort of work we make. There is now an open channel of communication to their leadership team which we hope will held find homes for other pieces of work in the future. - Relationship with Queens Theatre Hornchurch: Queens Theatre Hornchurch supported the project with marketing as part of their Essex On Stage project and Mathew Russel came to see the show. this will be relationship we can build and potentially connect with their CPP project - Relationship with community venues: Through the project we have accessed an active and working community venue network that can provide an audience of bob-theatre goers. We will be building on this in the future.
-
Relationship with Princes Trust: Following our performances and Q and A's at The Princes Trust they have offered us use of their performance space for future workshops and projects in kind for the foreseable PROBLEMS OR CHANGES - Vaults cancelation and reworking for Bush: The main challenge we faced was the cancellation of Vault festival and the associated drop in projected income and loss of venue. Our producer navigated this incredibly, sourcing a high profile venue and working with the production manager to re-model the show for a new space. The drop in income was filled by extra fundraising. DIFFERENCE IN THE FUTURE AND IMPACT - Profile: Working at both Leeds Playhouse and The Bush has increased the companies profile and visibility leading to conversation with the further venues regarding support and a tour including The New Diorama, Nottingham Playhouse and The Mercury Colchester. - Tour: There is interest in a tour as mentioned above
FEEDBACK
I wish every young person, youth worker & those who care about the failings of society could see The Sh*t @bushtheatre. It hit so many chords as a youth worker in London I laughed & cried throughout. @MichaelaRaffert "Thrillingly sharp dialogue...precise and utterly realistic" @AleksSierz Broadway World: 4 Stars - "An intense play that cuts to the chase" Theatre Things: 4 Stars - "Emson’s writing is heartfelt and real” Aleks Sierz - "@AlFerris's powerful production... throat-grabbingly convincing"
