1. Working with Diverse and New Voices
Diverse City believes that various groups under-represented in the performing arts industries offer a vast creative resource of new visions, new voices and new forms.

In July 2008, in partnership with Battersea Technology College, Nightingale Care Home and Shaftesbury Park Primary School, we created an intergenerational performance piece based on the memories of journeys of elders and young pupils.

2. Learning Skills for Life
Diverse City in collaboration with Bexhill College delivered The Tea Dance, a project that focused on integrating groups of young people from Bexhill and London and exploring their experiences to create a theatre production.

The show, performed at the De La Warr Pavilion on Sunday 14th September 2008, was an extravaganza of theatre, dance, music and film that told an original story of wartime love and loss spanning the generations.

The Tea Dance featured young people from London alongside Performing Arts and Media students from Bexhill College as well as students from the Glyne Gap, a school for young people with severe and profound learning difficulties.
