Bringing together students, educators, and seniors across the island, re:ACT 2023 empowered young changemakers to create original hybrid performances — blending short film and Forum Theatre — that addressed urgent real-world issues through the lens of empathy, inclusion, and dialogue.

Each re:ACT performance by the schools invited audiences to pause, reflect, and intervene — offering both seniors and students not only a stage, but a space to rehearse solutions and envision better outcomes.

Educators praised the 2023 festival for its relevance, creativity, and impact:

“It’s one of the few programmes where students walk away not just more confident performers, but more compassionate people.”
