CLCA Drama students recently took part in the National Theatre’s The Next Morning programme — a powerful national project bringing young voices to the forefront. Students from across schools in the UK explored themes of identity, community and hope, and an England of the future. We are incredibly proud to see CLCA students voices have been included and have contributed to a national conversation about the future. https://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/.../the-next-morning.../ https://soundcloud.com/national-theatre/dear-england-time-capsule
