The Wall Between Us

As part of this year’s Good Relation Week. Key Stage 3 Drama pupils from St.Brigid’s College will be performing a short play called “The Wall Between Us”

The short drama will be performed at St.Brigid’s College on Friday 17th October at 1.30pm for an audience of Key Stage 3 pupils. “The Wall Between Us” is a powerful and thought-provoking play that explores the impact of racism, prejudice, and silence in a contemporary school setting in Northern Ireland. Through a series of interconnected scenes, the play follows four students—Liam, Chloe, Jake, and Emily—as they confront their own biases and the societal walls that divide people based on race, nationality, and difference.

Shared?

Following its highly acclaimed, sold out premiere in Belfast last year Partisan Production in collaboration with Clanmil Housing are delighted to present the play SHARED?

Shared? follows a colourful cast of characters living in and near by to a shared housing association development where a rumour has been circulating and the local Neighbourhood App has taken a very odd turn. Meet these neighbours from different countries, classes and cultures as their worlds begin to combine and collide.

One of them is Emma, a single working mother, she has “earned” enough “points” to move into a new flat in a shared neighbourhood on the leafy side of town. But what’s the point in a point system when the teenage party girl downstairs, the one with the social worker, doesn’t seem to care that some people have to work long hours? All Emma really wants is to spend time with her 14 year old daughter who has developed some issues of her own.

Watch the scenes as a host of community members cross wires and cross paths in a bid to belong
