RAP AGAINST GUNS AND KNIVES

Put it Down! is a rap opera project exploring issues surrounding gun and knife crime that is now available to Youth Offending Teams, Young Offender Institutions, Pupil Referral Units and Schools.

 
Put it Down! was staged in July 2006 at the Jackson's Lane Theatre in Highgate. It was created with clients of the London Probation Service in partnership with Insight Arts. The Put it Down! concept has now been further developed and can be recreated for your client group in order to incorporate local concerns and young people's views.
