AnOther Home is a collaborative school holiday initiative led by Rebus Theatre in partnership with Libraries ACT, Multicultural Hub Canberra (MHub), Red Cross ACT, and St Vincent de Paul Society ACT (Vinnies).
This free four-day theatre program is designed for migrant and refugee children aged 8–12, offering a fun and inclusive space to explore creativity, build confidence, and connect with their community through drama and performance.
Using theatre as a tool for self-expression, social connection, and skill-building, AnOther Home empowers young people to share their stories and shine on stage. Participants will take part in theatre games, improvisation, and creative storytelling, culminating in a performance for family, friends, and community members.
Led by a passionate and experienced team, the program is tailored to each child’s needs, with transport, translation, and accessibility support available.
Alongside creative development, the program connects families with essential community services, promoting social cohesion and building lasting relationships between artists, families, and organisations.
