This project, developed by Anna Des Clayes in partnership with Voices in Exile, engaged members of the refugee, asylum seeker and migrant communities in Brighton in a series of creative workshops combining dance, storytelling, and reflection. Together, on the tour, they explored experiences of Brighton from a different point of view. Participants collectively created an immersive performance event, inviting audience members to be guided on a personal and alternative tour of Brighton.
Important note: With respect to the intimacy and privacy of the stories being told on this tour, places were by invite only.



“I felt a great positive energy in my life. I remember my childhood days. I enjoyed it a lot.”
