The company continued to deliver women focussed creative courses for local women through the Rise Up programme, delivering weekly sessions to 15 participants with end of term performances including devised productions and a scripted performance of Second Person Narrative by Jemma Kennedy. The course also improved employability skills for local women by hosting networking events with local female leaders and mentoring sessions with participants to set personal goals. The company delivered Elfie Selfie, a walkabout act for families at St Johns Shopping Centre in Liverpool City Centre. In partnership with Open Culture and Liverpool BID to bring high quality festive arts activity to local people, for free. The company began developing a new show ‘Shattered” which explored aspirations and achievements and how these are affected depending on where you are from. As part of the development process they delivered 10 workshops with schools, women’s groups community groups and the general public hosted in Liverpool and Knowsley library services. They hosted 1 week of Research and Development with professional actors and a writer to develop the script, hosted at Liverpool Light house, a community and arts hub in Anfield. Created and toured Lovestruck, an immersive interactive theatre performance which visited 3 venues (Liverpool Everyman, Shakespeare North Playhouse and Storyhouse) engaging local people as audiences in each location. 20+ freelance artists from the North West region were involved in paid roles in the development of the production from actors, Director, Set and Costume designers, prop makers and our Stage Management team- celebrating the best local talent. Local communities engaged in the themes of the production through 3 x short creative drama courses in their area caleed 'How to Save the World' and used the climate crisis as a theme, delivered in partnership with each touring venue. Young people age 14-25 took part in these and created their own interactive and immersive drama and film experiences
Our strategy is informed by the insights of the people we create and engage ensuring a diverse and dynamic approach. We invite communities to co-design the ideas we stage through our Community Panel and make space for them to tell their own stories in a programme of Community projects including RISE UP, a creative skills course for women. Paperwork Theatre is led by 3 company directors (1 resigned July 2024). Our stakeholders include public audiences & community groups who access our productions, theatre making artists who engage in our development programme and/or who are employed by the company, participants who engage in our community outreach work, project partners and funders. In reflection of the world around us, Paperwork Theatre is ever-changing, reaching new people and voices in the heart of our communities and beyond. We host detailed evaluation with stakeholders at the end of each project we deliver to allow participants and staff to offer feedback and insights to develop the work we create.
