Conference

Lady in Red

in conjunction with Certain Curtain Theatre Company

 

This definitive conference brings together two leading forces in the field of domestic violence to challenge, inspire and engage you in the issues that affect us all.

The conference will give delegates an introduction to the Nationally Acclaimed Freedom Programme, currently running at over 100 venues across the UK. Programme Creator, Pat Craven, developed this challenging and motivating training following over ten years of 'hands on' work with violent men. Pat will help conference delegates to understand how the Freedom Programme can help men and women to recognise and understand the beliefs held by abusive men and help women gain self-esteem and confidence. Additional speakers include programme facilitators and graduates from the programme.

Certain Curtain Theatre Company has been challenging and inspiring audiences with its own unique brand of theatre since 1989. They will perform their ground-breaking play LADY IN RED (Shortlisted for the Amnesty International Freedom of Expression Award) followed by an after-show discussion with the writers and actors. Hear the unheard voice of the victim as she attempts to leave - Power and control, physical, emotional and psychological abuse, fear of the unknown and 'Why doesn't she just leave?' are just some of the issues raised in this contemporary look at domestic violence.

Reviews

"This play really answers that question 'Why doesn't she just leave?' Brilliant"
