Introduction

Make Do & Mend is an inspiring new show from Women & Theatre, full of stories and songs. An interactive performance bursting with good ideas old and new, for all generations to enjoy.

People from across Birmingham have told us their stories and passed on words of wisdom.

About how to…make ends meet, eat well, strengthen relationships and get the most out of life.

Could we make more, do more, mend more…and spend less? Do you wish you were more resourceful?

Have you got a good idea? A top tip? Come along and pass it on.

W&T invite you to be a part of their new theatre performance.

We’re looking for community participants to take part in performances, if you’re interested please contact Pippa Frith for further information onm 0121 449 7117 / pippafrith@womenandtheatre.co.uk

History

Make, do and Mend was a project idea that came out of a number of conversations with local community groups specifically when talking to older people and younger parents. We have worked across 5 community settings, to research and develop the performance.

The project has been funded through The National Lottery Awards for All, Birmingham City Council, The William A Cadbury Trust and The Roughley Trust.
