Friends!

We have been awarded Arts Council Funding for R&D (Research and Development) of our Anansi Spider Story show for children and young people!!

This means that what we discover in our workshops in March will help support the creation of our show! These workshops will act as 'Phase 1' of our research and development in creating a show for this group. 'Phase 2' will be putting into practice what we have discovered in these workshops.

Mental health, wellbeing and safe spaces are at the forefront of our commit to serving our community at Anansi. Part of our development includes having sessions with Dramatherapists, creative organisations and businesses in Derby and beyond. We have regular meetings and discussions within Anansi, creatives, academics, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, disabled community, parents, careers and guardians to make sure that we are always doing our best for those who need our company the most
