FORUM THEATRE

Heartbreak Productions have recently been working with LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming) and FACE (Farming and Countryside Education) on a specifically devised pilot project called Food for Thought (to view this presentation, follow the link on the title). This was a forum based piece of theatre aimed at Year 7s highlighting the issues connecting Food, Farming and Countryside. The pilot was so successful that LEAF and FACE are compiling a national tour with the piece which has already had taster performances at The Eden Project over the bank holiday weekend in May.
