"The MA gave me a solid foundation from which to start a community arts project."

Main details

Goldsmiths provided a hugely creative and supportive environment in which to develop as an artist and facilitator. As an established practitioner the MA programme gave me an opportunity to reflect on my own practice, develop new ideas and extend my skills. I met a wide range of practitioners on the MA, a lot of whom I continue to work alongside.

After graduating from Goldsmiths four of us from the MA in Applied Theatre programme started Green Shoes Arts, a community arts project based in Barking & Dagenham committed to providing children and young people with creative opportunities that are positive, challenging, inspiring and fun. We now run four youth theatre programmes and a dance company, with members ranging between 5 and 19 years old.
