The purpose of all the theatre of peace programmes is to provide an introduction to the vocabulary of Peace Education and the process of personal and collective transformation.
The primary materials for this are the archetypes of the Peacebuilder and the Peace Matrix created by Roy Leighton and Professor Hilary Cremin [Head of the faculty of education at Cambridge University].
This was the original 2021 Conflict and Peace Literacy Window
This is the current 2025 version of the Conflict and Peace Literacy Window
On the 18th February 2025 we launched our new theatre of peace production 'The Missing Peace'.
The play is a response to Baldwin's plea in his book 'The Fire Next Time' to 'end the racial nightmare' in America and the wider world.
This 'Theatre of Peace' production uses the Baldwin, Buckley debate to address the issues of peace and conflict towards 'others'.
The plot is centered around four young people from different cultural backgrounds involved in a school project to understand the causes of, and possible solutions for, peace and conflict in the world at this time.
In the play, these four young people have to deal with their own positions on race and violence, peace and conflict, when one of their group 'likes' a racist comment about one of the other group members on social media. This simple 'thumbs up' is a catalyst for destroying not only their school project but also their friendship and their trust.
