Can You Hear Me?

More Information on Can You Hear Me?

Testing, testing 1…2…3… 

Sign up for our Weekly WhatsApp Broadcast to receive positive voice notes of hope and reflection straight to your phone, left by award winning industry professionals including playwright, rapper and beatboxer Testament, actor Lladel Bryant and comedian Maisie Adam.  
 

How does it work?

1. Book a ticket to receive details of how to sign up and gain access to the WhatsApp Broadcast phone number

2. Save the phone number to your contacts (you need to do this to receive the broadcast) and send a WhatsApp message to the phone introducing yourself with your full name

3. Listen to the audio notes and messages when you want

4. If you feel like it, send us a reply (don’t worry, it will just go to Playhouse, not everyone on the broadcast)–  voice your opinion, speak a poem, sing a song, reply in any audio style that suits you.   

We are listening, so let’s join up through sound, words and creativity.  We’ll share thoughts with you and we want to know what’s on your mind too.   

At the end of the project, to celebrate the sound we created within the broadcast, audio messages will be selected to contribute to a large soundscape mixed and edited by a professional Sound Designer.   

Watch this space for upcoming guest artists, speakers and writers.

A message for participants, parents, guardians and carers   

Trained and experienced DBS checked Playhouse Staff are running the project. We will be listening to all the audio sent in by the guest artists and other young people signed up to the project.

Audio notes will be sent on WhatsApp through ‘Broadcast’. The good thing about ‘Broadcast’ is that only the Playhouse project ‘Can you hear me?’ team see your details and can contact you. This option does not allow participants to communicate between themselves or to see each other’s names and phone numbers.  And, if you don’t want to hear from us you can just delete the number from your contacts and our messages will no longer reach you.    

 To hear the messages you will need to download WhatsApp, if you are under 16 you will need parental, carer or guardian consent to be involved.
