"The MUJU UPSTARTS FESTIVAL: Bringing us together in mind, spirit and art" (Nick Kent, Director, The Tricycle)
"It's really intended to demonstrate that, contrary to what the media would have us believe, when you throw Muslims and Jews together, they can be creative and not destructive"Warren Minde (Co-organiser of the MUJU Upstarts Festival)
This event is inspired by the memory of Ester Gluck who was a member of the MUJU theatre group at the Tricycle and also worked with refugee children. All proceeds will go to a charity called the SEPARATED CHILD FOUNDATION which has been set up in her name.
The charity supports refugee children who experience the double trauma of separation not only from their homeland, culture and natural environment but also from the adults in their family who gave them care.
