Creating the Debate 21 years on…

In 1989 Y Touring produced The Inner Circle, an incredibly powerful piece by Patricia Loughrey dramatising the impact of HIV/AIDS on the lives of a group of young people. This site documents and discusses the company's work producing theatre and engaging people young and old since that first production.

Breathing Country: A Breath of Fresh Air, by Marlene Winfield

The introduction of electronic patient records is not a subject that automatically sets pulses racing. However it raises complex and important questions for health services about patient care and privacy. Marlene Winfield as Director for Patients and Public at NHS Connecting for Health has to deal with such questions in her daily work. In her essay she reflects from her perspective as an expert advisor on the production Breathing Country on both the rewards and the difficulties of using theatre to engage young people and                                                      other audiences in discussing these issues.
