Performing International Plays (PIP) is a University of Kent-based provider of educational resources, student workshops and teacher CPDs exploring contemporary plays in translation, using a blend of drama and MFL pedagogies. In partnership with Foreign Affairs theatre company, we offer young people in secondary schools much-needed opportunities to connect with important stories from around the world by a diverse set of playwrights who write in languages other than English. Our mission is to expand and diversify the curriculum through international plays and make each student feel represented. Through our workshops, we develop young people's international cultural capital through hands-on devising, scene studies and collaborative translation for the stage.
