The Renal Arts Group have been awarded funding from Arts Council of Northern Ireland to develop William Johnston’s script for ‘The Starman, The Superhero and The Wizards’, working with award-winning playwright and producer Shannon Yee. Shannon will provide bespoke mentoring to William to develop the script, offer read-through sessions for group members to provide feedback, which will culminate in a performance of the play in a theatre space with professional actors. The performance will become part of a larger body of patient-led work that will be taken to international conference to highlight the benefits of the arts for patients with kidney disease.
