Here’s some feedback from one of last year’s PLAY & PRESENT participants, ALSA Productions who brought a work in progress of TALL TAIL to the Fitzgibbon theatre in 2019:
“We were so grateful to have the opportunity to avail of the Play and Present Scheme at Graffiti in 2019. Having access to the theatre gave us the space and freedom to explore our play during its development phase. Graffiti was able to facilitate workshops and work-in-progress sharings with young people which had a huge influence on our piece and really informed the finished product.”
