Raw Nerve is a professional community theatre company working both locally and nationally, using performances and workshops to address relevant issues from a Christian perspective, support children and young people, serve the community and help people reach their potential.
Schools
Raw Nerve is building on the fantastic reputation developed through the 11 years of schools work done by Riverside School of Performing Arts by offering to schools an extended package of performance work. Tailored to both support the work already being done in the drama and RE curriculum and to offer an entertaining and thought-provoking way to tackle issues being faced by young people today, Raw Nerve’s performance, assembly and lesson packages can be made either to cater for your own needs, or come ready made to tackle a specific issue or teaching area.
Community Work
Raw Nerve works with a number of community projects, offering both performances and workshops, both as hired advisors and performers and as a integral part of its own mission statement. Amongst others, we have worked with Acorns Childrens Hospice, Birmingham Childrens Hospital, the Criminal Justice Advisory Group and Birmingham Diocese. We aim to have a positive impact on the lives of participants and audiences; whether through equipping them with new skills, building their confidence and self-esteem or developing their understanding of the world around them.
Churches
A large part of the work we do on a daily basis, and the one thing that underpins our whole ethos is our Christian faith. From this comes our dedication to support the outreach and work of local and national churches, Christian charities and conferences.
