“On Saturday we were honoured to speak with Dr Alex Cotton from our local NHS Trust and Dee Hodgson from Mind Coventry Warwickshire to talk to the cast and core prod team about mental health, their respective work, and to share their personal experiences. As a team, we have sought to highlight how mental health issues are just as prevalent today as they were in the 80s, when Fame takes place. The musical touches upon several sensitive issues and we wanted to provide our cast with the opportunity to speak with experts and have an open discussion on mental health. Thank you so much to both Dr Alex and Dee for this. We are proud to be working with Mind CWR on this production with all our programme proceeds going towards the St. Clair Gardens rehabilitation centre outdoor gym. These will be available to purchase before the show begins in the Arts Centre.” from the co-producers - Tia and Charis
