A great big drama
In Stirling, Monument Performing Arts School launched their crowdfunding project 'A great big drama' with the aim of tackling the cost-of-living crisis through the arts.
The project uses drama sketches, song & dance, and community participation (including local students, graduates, and theatre groups) to entertain and inform. Sketches are complemented by informal get-togethers to bring people from different generations and backgrounds together.
They successfully raised £10,193 from 40 supporters including £5,601 in +Extra funding.
