Tackling School Bullying Through the Arts

Pause

Local theatre group Revolution Stage have been staging performances tackling a plethora of issues for almost 17 years now. Two of their previous performances - Teater Asrama-RA Act 1 and Teater Asrama-RA: Dorm Putra ACT II - took on the topic of bullying in boarding schools, and tackled themes of jealousy, friendship and overcoming obstacles. Though the plays have been restaged many times, the company is hoping to reach an even wider audience to spread the message against school bullying, by screening recordings of their theatre pieces at local schools and learning institutions. We speak to Shasha Fairus, a Marketing & Sponsorship Executive at Revolution Stage about this project.
