Tickets:
We are suggesting a £5.00 ticket fee, however, to ensure individuals experiencing financial hardship are not turned away, we also have donation based and free ticket options.
All proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the Radical Therapist Network who are raising crucial funds to provide one year’s worth of weekly therapy for adults in the UK who identify Queer, Trans, Intersex, Black, Indigenous, People of Colour (QTIBIPOC). Performance N’ Tha have made the decision to donate all proceeds from ticket sales to the Radical Therapist Network who are raising crucial funds to provide one year’s worth of weekly therapy for adults in the UK who identify Queer, Trans, Intersex, Black, Indigenous, People of Colour (QTIBIPOC).
Systemic oppression and institutional harm within therapy, training institutions and the government has disproportionality impacted Black people and people of colour, queer & trans people, disabled people, womxn, sex workers, underclass people and the working poor. We understand that people who exist at the intersection of multiple marginalised identities are at higher risk of violence and are the least likely to be able to access supportive, appropriate, affirmative and affordable therapy. We are therefore dedicated to fundraising money to implement one year’s worth of weekly therapy for adults in the UK who identify Queer, Trans, Intersex, Black, Indigenous, People of Colour (QTIBIPOC).
Access to affordable, high-quality training can be inaccessible for therapists who hold marginalised identities, and therapy can often be inaccessible to people who are most impacted by systems of oppression. Your donation will also support us to train and pay BIPOC and white queer and trans therapists to deliver trauma-informed, trans-cultural therapy with a particular focus on anti-racist, anti-capitalist and trans-affirmative therapeutic practice.
Accessibility:
SPILL YER TEA will be translated into British Sign Language by Deaf British Sign Language translator Daryl Jackson
