In the company of Reggie



Reggie Tetteh is the fifth Theatre for a Change practitioner to send a video postcard - his goes to the Director, John Retallack, and the whole team at Company of Angels.

Reggie is a facilitator at the Community Theatre Centre in James Town, where he has lived all his life. He leads the 'Advanced Group' - a focus group comprised of long standing members of the theatre and the facilitators who run other all the other CTC workshops.

Last week Reggie took the Advanced Group to perform at a sewing/tailoring school in James Town for girls who are not currently in full time mainstream education. They performed and invited the audience to take part in their newest piece, about a girl who takes an older lover after her father loses his job and is unable to support her any more.

John has nominated the director Jaqueline Rice to represent Company of Angels by recording a response to Reggie's video postcard. Her video will appear here on Friday 16th November.

See Reggie's video on YouTube.
