Detention Dialogues are a series of verbatim scripts which feature the voices of refugees from different countries and continents. Created as part of IceandFire’s Actors For Human Rights project, and in collaboration with Scottish Detainee Visitors(SDV), this piece of documentary theatre allows people to share their own story as told in their own words.
Testimonies tell of people’s experience being held in immigration removal facilities across the U.K. Their powerful stories tell of an uncomfortable truth, which all too often goes unheard, the Detention Dialogues project aims to address this.
Post-Performance Q&A
Following the performance, we’ll host a Q&A session with Kate Alexander, Director of Scottish Detainee Visitors, who supports asylum seekers at Dungavel Detention Centre. This is a great opportunity for attendees to deepen their understanding of detention in the UK and learn how they can help.
