“I found working with the RAPT Theatre team a really positive experience whilst I have been going through a difficult time in my life. The course gave me something to look forward to each week.

It helped a lot with my mental health and was something that took my mind off my current situation.

After each session I felt I had achieved something, being involved in the group was a really fun experience and I got good insight into other peoples experiences and their thoughts. ”

“The films were powerful, well made and helped marginalised people to have a voice. Most importantly, the participants seem to be really enjoying it, with people joining and returning each week.

One regular participant told me it was the highlight of his week.”

“
Our work with RAPT theatre was, for me, an exceptional experience.

The theatrical knowledge and technical resources brought to the table differed massively with any of the other creative groups I have had experience with, in that we were ultimately rewarded with what I believe to be original, inspired and professionally finished pieces of film work.

Aside from being an enjoyable and educational experience, what I found most valuable about the sessions was that they offered me a new avenue of hope in the future of dealing with my addiction/mental health issues by broadening my creative horizons – the therapeutic nature of which is often underestimated. ”
