Flagship new project: Wasted!
Women & Theatre launched into Spring with the fantastic news that we have been granted funds from the Arts Council, UK, to develop our exciting new project, Wasted.
Wasted is a multi-stranded project which explores and gives voice to women’s relationship with alcohol. The final product will be a piece of interactive musical theatre, produced in association with mac (Midlands Arts Centre), performed in February 2011. As in all of W&T’s work, the entertaining format will convey a serious message, acting as a stimulus for participants and audiences to examine their own drinking behaviour and make positive changes.
Over the next months we will be carrying out community research, workshops, summer schools, online activity, and recruiting community performers. We’ll also be speaking to health professionals about using aspects of Wasted for health promotion. If you’d like to find out more, please do get in touch with us.

Great night at mac`s “Tuesday Tunes” Wasted Summer School shared living statue work with the public .
Are men alienated by the idea behind a show about womens relationship with alchohol ?
A fellah said to me he thought he would feel uncomfortable coming to see such a show . He thought that there would be a lot of moaning about men in it . What do you think ?
is the media frenzy over negative reporting of the state of the country driving us to drink ? is it a conspiracy between the government , Rupert Murdoch and Weatherspoons ? what do you think ?
