Aaron MacKinson
17 yr old Aaron joined at 15. He supports FUSION and VOCABILITY. "I worked with 2Wave's Undergound Performance Group (15-17 years) to create a play called Unprovoked. We went to see Random by Debbie Tucker Green at the Royal Court Theatre where a youth dies in a random act of violence. It felt current. We took that trigger into Saturday workshops and began devising. A lot happened. Young people embraced it. Everyone was motivated. My role was to facilitate the process, travelling with it, seeing where they were taking it. I wrote a song, The Daily Routine which was a cycle for a particular day, where a boy loses his life. Next day everything's normal, but it's not. We performed the play with 2Wave's dance group Urban Reality at Lewisham Town Hall. Audiences said they were moved and I think it brought a deeper reality of youth violence to everyone."

RIOTS

Girl with watch
Tamsin Kayembe (aka Concise One) is writing a new play for young women called Riots about a 15 year old girl who loves to rap and MC.
Tamsin says "It's about being in love and being angry with the world and everybody in it! The play uses lyrics, singing, spoken word and drama."
Riots will be showcased as part of International Women's Week on 12 March 2011. See Events page for details of IT'S MY NITE Platform Showcase for Young Artists.
