Blinded By Your Grace is an idea for an epic ensemble community theatre show made with/by and for young people in the South West. It celebrates the power of community, of coming together and uniting in a time of grief at two rival schools. It will be full of music, energy, celebration and dance, but also pain, heartache and loss.

The team includes Writer Florence Espeut-Nickless, Director Stef O'Driscoll, Associate Director Xahnaa Adlam, and Producer Tom Bevan for TBC Ltd. They are working with young people in Gloucester (supported by GL4), Bristol (supported by Bristol Old Vic), and Trowbridge (supported by Trowbridge Town Hall) to develop the show.

​

Florence and the team will be coming to Matson in March 2025 to work with different groups of young people to help develop the show. They will also be running a one day theatre making workshop for young people to devise their own work based on the themes of Blinded By Your Grace, and to hear parts of the script. 

​

We are so excited to welcome them to Matson.
