Keeping the future in their sights

If you could describe your current mood as a weather type – such as sunny, stormy or foggy – what would it be? It might seem like an odd question, but it is warm up methods like this that create Total Insight Theatre's tight-knit community. For budding creatives Ada, 19, and Hannah, 23, it is the inclusive and inviting engagement techniques that make Total Insight's projects so worthwhile, even when they are remote.

‘The workshops are just really nice, warm environments' says Ada. She has taken part in a couple of projects with Total Insight, most recently ‘The Nest’ – a free online arts programme for those aged 18–25. This entails a series of workshops that highlight different routes into the arts, in a scheme designed to help young people break into a career that they are passionate about.
