As part of our forthcoming theatre-circus production The Arrival, Tamasha is commissioning two artists leading up to the show. Each commission will result in a standalone piece inspired by themes of migration which can add layers of material and interpretation to the show in development.
One of these was awarded to BAFTA and Emmy award-winning filmmaker Sheila Hayman. Since 2004, Sheila has run Write for Life, the creative writing programme of the Medical Foundation, the UK's only charity dedicated to working with torture victims.
Sheila's commission, saw her make this short documentary film with Write for Life participants and other groups.
