Exeter Forum Theatre
Exeter Forum Theatre (EFT) is a W+W project which provides arts opportunities for homeless, ex-homeless and vulnerably housed people. We also train people
who have experienced homelessness in acting and faciliation skills and then design and deliver innovative training days for a range of settings including conferences, alcohol and drug workers, mental health services and housing staff.
Over the last 5 years EFT has embarked on many performance and education projects including regular drama workshops, youth homelessness prevention work, comedy shows, pantomines with clients and agency staff as the cast and the creation of a dvd for use in schools.
