Thought you might like to see this fantastic review of our play “When the birds stopped singing”. Written by Mark Brooks CEO Mankind, the content has really motivated us to re-stage our powerful work.
“When The Birds Stopped Singing is both thought provoking and powerful -challenging society’s stereotypical view of domestic abuse. The way it shows the ripple effect on people when just one person rightly highlighted how damaging this crime is. It is must-see, in tune with this age where we need to accept that anyone can be a victim of domestic abuse. Gamechanging!
When you run a support service like Support U, we see the pain of DA/DV and the pain it causes to the individual. This play brings the trauma and the context to life for anyone in a DA/DV relationship. We ask don’t be Simon, reachout and get support. Many feel they aren’t worth it when you get rejection time and again for being LGBT+ then end up in a violent relationship. You are worth it. #DontBeSimon #LGBT #DA #YouAreWorthIt
