Towards the end of my research I discovered an article about the term 'Applied Theatre', its uses, its ideas and whether this kind of theatre has an impact on society.
Now for my I truly believe that Creative Arts cant definitely make a difference to peoples lives. From the early days when I was in my community drama group and was able to build on my confidence, to what I have seen most recently, Theatre definitely has a place as a way to let people express themselves, learn skills and life skills, explore themselves within a safe and secure environment and ultimately create somewhere they can escape and be themselves and not be judged by society. I feel it is so essential and important especially in the lives of those considered to be hard to reach communities, those kind of groups I have had the privilege of working with, the youngsters with difficulties and issues, and the adults with different needs in particular really benefit from having somewhere in their life where they can go and show off their uniqueness and be among friends. That is why letting people have theatre and the arts in their lives is something I am so passionate about as I see how rewarding it is for everyone involved.
