Training

As we exited the 20th Century under the Artistic Direction of Sophie Lees, the dominant activity of Azimuth Theatre was touring social action theatre to rural secondary schools. (Many of those shows were being written by Chris Craddock three of which were published by NeWest Press in the book Naked At School.)

While Azimuth took a new direction after 2001, we did not immediately cease our touring of social action theatre to secondary schools.

The five projects listed on this page were part of our Artists-In-Education Program. All of these shows included post-performance discussions to connect our secondary school audiences with local support resources relevant to the play’s issues, and also included self-expression workshops run by Azimuth artists in the schools.
