About Voicebox.
What do we do?
“Don’t Cry” | “Man Up” | “Be Hyper-Confident”| “Win At All Costs” | “Be Reckless” | “Be Resilient” | “Dominate the Space”
These are the lessons being taught to young males today.
We work with young people to challenge all of the negative aspects of masculinity. Through our work we promote a healthy masculinity that teaches young males to:
“Respect Others” | “Care” | “Be Vulnerable” | “Be Aware” | “Love” | “Be Empathetic” | “Share” | “Work with Others” | “Communicate” | “Listen” | “Be Kind to Yourself” | “Be You”
The use of drama and performance enables young people to;
-
Effectively apply their understanding of our themes to real-life situations.
-
Engage with sensitive issues such as: gender, sexuality and mental health, through the use of characters and stories.
-
Develop empathy through working with others
-
Take risks, make creative choices, and build confidence
Creative learning and drama creates an environment where learning is engaging and student led. The content is relevant to the experiences of the young people in the workshops.
