SUMMARY:Asylum Monologues @ Ben & Jerry's Cone Together Manchester: Welcome not Walls
DESCRIPTION:Be & Jerry’s will be hosting a Wall of welcome messages in Piccadilly Gardens in Manchester this weekend. Ice&Fire will be performing readings of Asylum Monologues 1-3pm on Saturday 22nd June \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/2126481530783221/ \nWe need a society where everyone feels welcome. And\, right now\, there are too many people being shut out from our communities. Which got us thinking\, it doesn’t need to be this way… \nSo\, along with some friends at national and local refugee organisations as part of Refugee Week\, Ben & Jerry’s are building a wall\, with a bit of a difference – to welcome\, not divide. \nWe’ll be asking our fans to cone together and decorate our wall with messages of solidarity and welcome for people who are seeking safety. \nPlus\, our wall will be complete with a celebration of refugee-led music\, arts\, spoken word set to bring people together through what unites and not divides us. And of course\, we’ll be bringing a scoop or two of our chunky and swirly Fairtrade ice cream. It’s time to raise a paintbrush (and a spoon)! \nThe wall of welcome will be heading to Manchester on 21-22nd June for Refugee Week\, so stop down and see us between 9-6pm on either day. \nPeople seeking asylum are our co-workers\, neighbours and friends but every day people are being shut out\, unable to participate fully in society. There’s never been a more important time to stand against regressive policies which seek to divide us. Because what’s sweeter than people coming together\, to say “we’re all equal\, and we’re all welcome here”.

SUMMARY:Arming The World @ Brighton\, Ship Street
DESCRIPTION:Unmasking Britain’s shadowy arms trade\nFree performances: 12 noon and 2pm: 22nd June 2019 \nIn the words of the #ArmingtheWorld team:\n“In the UK\, we do many things well. Stately homes\, the James Bond franchise\, fish and chips and tax havens. But there’s one important source of national pride that is often overlooked. Triumphing over past decade\, the UK has been the second largest exporter of arms in the world (damn you USA!)\, with over 300 British companies involved in the trade. Our stunning weapons have been deployed across the globe and we want to help you get to know them a bit better.” (Sept 2017) \nThis show “…..brings the shadowy world of our government’s involvement into arms trading out into the light of day”\nhttp://www.armingtheworld.co.uk/\nBrought to you by Brighton Against the Arms Trade.

SUMMARY:Asylum Monologues @ Saint Margarets House
DESCRIPTION:Venue: Hall behind the Gallery Cafe at 21 Old Ford Road \n6:30pm-9:30pm | Donation Entry: £5 Solidarity\, £2/3 Standard\, £0 Broke \n“This waiting for the Home Office to decide – me\, I always say that it is a diplomatic form of torture. They are not raping us\, they are not burning us with cigarettes\, they are not hitting us with guns\, but they are torturing us mentally\, and that’s the worst. Because – my scars\, they heal. It was painful but if I touch them now\, I feel no pain. But the torture that is mental – this is constant…” \nThe first script created for ice&fire’s Actors for Human Rights project\, Asylum Monologues is a first-hand account of the UK’s asylum system in the words of people who have experienced it read by actors. The Actors for Human Rights programme was founded in 2006 and is a network of more than 700 professional actors across the UK who are dedicated to drawing public attention to human rights concerns\, responding to requests for rehearsed readings of our documentary plays and can go anywhere at any time. \nice&fire explores human rights stories through performance\, putting human rights at the core of everything they do to make accessible theatre for a wide range of audiences across the UK. The reading will be followed by a Q&A Panel Discussion. \n‘This was not what I expected. I was expecting some kind of inauthentic moralising verbatim theatre experience. The acting (in Asylum Monologues) was delicate\, minimal\, allowing the words to speak for themselves. Although we know it must go on\, it’s still shocking to hear the first-hand accounts of people devoured by the heartless machine of bureaucracy. This was brave\, honest\, close to the bone.’ – OXFORD THEATRE REVIEW \nEvent details here

SUMMARY:Actor for Human Rights @ Beyond Borders Festival
DESCRIPTION:The UK is set to leave the European Union on the 29th March. No one knows what this will look like\, or even if it will happen\, but what is certain is that the political landscape in Britain has changed.

Lesbians and Gays Support the Migrants\, Khidr Collective\, Counterpoints Arts\, Sisters Uncut\, Feminist Anti-Fascist Assembly\, Unis Resist Border Controls\, The Outside Project\, Refugee Info Bus\, Skin Deep\, Streets Kitchen & many\, many more. \nIceandfire will be sharing real stories from people about their experiences of seeking refuge and the uk asylum process. Artists from the RCA will be hosting an interactive art exhibition entitled ‘Mini\, Mini Europe’. Plus more workshops to be announced! \nJoin us for an afternoon of workshops\, performances\, and the chance to chat with the grassroots movements fighting for an open and equal Britain. \n– \nThe People’s Film Club is hosting BEYOND BORDERS\, a festival of film\, discussion\, art\, and performance celebrating the power of collaboration and international solidarity. \nAll funds raised will go to refugee and migrant support projects\, led by L’Auberge des Migrants and Médecins Sans Frontières. \nCome and join the conversation… #BeyondBordersBAC

SUMMARY:Flight or Fight?
DESCRIPTION:‘We want to stop people being deported… so let’s stop the plane. It just made complete sense.’\n\n\n\n\n\nIn 2017\, fifteen activists (the Stansted 15) cut through the perimeter fence of Stansted Airport and locked themselves together surrounding a plane\, preventing the deportation of 60 people. This brand new documentary play follows the story of that action and its repercussions for the activists and some of the people who were meant to be on that flight.\n\n\n\n\n\n‘The day before the flight\, I called my daughter and told her I’ve decided to relocate to Nigeria. I didn’t tell her I was in detention\, I just tried to console her’\n\n\nThis script was developed in collaboration with End Deportations\n\n\n\n\n*********\n\n\n\n7pm Doors\n\n\n7.30pm Reading\n\n\n8.30pm Q&A Panel Discussion\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is FREE and tickets are available here\n\n\nLocation\n\nAmnesty International UK\n25 New Inn Yard\nLondon\nEC2A 3EA
