Butterflies is an explosive piece of theatre amplifying the visceral experiences of young people growing up in the Instagram age.
Created in collaboration with female and LGBTQ+ led Flat 4 Theatre, the critically acclaimed play by Natasha Brotherdale Smith will tour 10 state secondary schools in November 2022. The company will deliver post-show workshops, crucially supporting the PSHE curriculum. Each participating school will be provided with a Resource Pack signposting their students to relevant charities to support those affected by the play’s themes and encourage further exploration in their classrooms long after the performance and workshop from Flat 4 Theatre has
passed.
In November 2022, Flat 4 Theatre will tour state secondary schools and Sixth Forms in London, performing Butterflies to over 1000 students aged 14-18. Each 60- minute performance will be followed by a workshop and Q& A session facilitated by the company to discuss the themes of the play, supporting the PSHE curriculum and beginning challenging and unlikely conversations with young people about mental health, social media, sexuality, accessing Higher Education and online safety.
