Bristol-based acta community theatre is leading on Refugee Engagement and Integration through Community Theatre (REACT) with two other European partners based in Rotterdam and Palermo.
REACT uses community theatre as a tool by which refugees in each country can tell their own stories to host communities. Through direct creative action, REACT promotes positive aspects of increased cultural diversity and highlights the contributions of refugees to community life.
