In response to the contemporary globalised world, Border Crossings creates a theatrical and cultural space in which peoples come together as equals for creativity and dialogue. Our UK and Irish companies work across the borders between cultures and art forms, and between nations and peoples.

Story

We rely on donations to continue our work with refugees through our education and outreach programme. 

Every year, we work with even more young refugees, many of whom are young people who have arrived in the UK without their families. 

£20 pays for one hour of devised theatre workshop with a young person who has just arrived in the country, £100 pays for sustained contact with a group of young people who have no stability. 

We are currently showing two plays in West London. In This Flesh Is Mine and When Nobody Returns: Plays of Love and War Border Crossings and ASHTAR Theatre of Palestine present immersive productions set in the Middle East, in the heart of conflict and occupation. 

The plays, performed by a joint Palestinian and British cast, show displaced people taking to the seas, soldiers carrying mental scars, and long-remembered scores that need to be settled. Alongside war, death, honour and reconciliation, the plays engage profound themes surrounding the current refugee crisis.
