In the war-zones of Liberia and Congo, four volunteers with Doctors Without Borders struggle to provide emergency medical care under extreme conditions. With different levels of experience, each volunteer must find their own way to face the challenges, the tough choices, and the limits of their idealism. "Living in Emergency" is a window into the seldom portrayed and less-than glamorous side of humanitarian aid work. It explores a world that is challenging, complex, and fraught with dilemmas - the struggles, both internal and external, that aid workers face when working in war zones and other difficult contexts.
Admission: Donation.

“Speak out: Theatre for transformation” currently has an opening for a new musician. We rehearse on Monday nights for 2 hours and perform once a month for various community groups. In the past we’ve worked with Amnesty International, Deerpark Secondary School, the “We made this” South presentation project and the Greenmount youth club. 

We are currently looking for a musician who exhibits the following traits:
- Ability to sensitively listen to an audience member’s story and reflect it back through music
- An ability to improvise music that captures the emotional truth of a story
- An interest in performance and theatre
- An ability to work as part of a creative and dynamic team
- A belief in the value of witnessing personal story and the transformative power of the arts
- A willingness to work on a voluntary basis
- Availability to rehearse on Monday evenings and to perform once a month (last Monday of each month)

Most of our work happens on a voluntary basis, however for members of the group who are interested, there are opportunities for paid workshop facilitation on a needs-based occurrence.

For more information see our website: http://www.speakout.ie. If you are interested in joining our group, please contact myself. Training will be provided.

Kind regards,
Chriszine Backhouse
