Stomping Ground is about where we belong. It’s about where we are welcome, where we fit in and where we can thrive.
Having a Stomping Ground has never felt so important over this past year and Full Circle Theatre Company, an exceptional award-winning ensemble of learning disabled theatre makers, has created a stunning piece of workin progress, shared here digitally, which will eventually become a full scale outdoor show. They were determined to continue being creative and, ever resourceful, found ways to be so, affirming their commitment to each other and their audiences during the most challenging circumstances.
The result is this short film (35 mins) exploring ideas about belonging, safety in our neighbourhoods, and forging an identity and a place against the odds. The fighting spirit of this engaging piece will entertain audiences with its humour, heart and pathos.
