Crowdfunding 2025

Will you help us reach our goal?

What will we do?

Around the World will be a mobile, non-verbal theatre performance for children aged 4 to 18 who are growing up in difficult circumstances. The show will be playful, visual, and musical – with no spoken language, so that every child can relate to it.

With each performance, we create a space where children are not refugees, but explorers. Not numbers, but talented individuals who deserve to be seen.

Four experienced creators will develop this new production, drawing on years of working creatively with children in crisis. During the process, we will actively involve children in shelters through workshops – allowing them to help change the story.

What your support makes possible

With your help, we can spark imagination and resilience in those who need it most. Your support makes it possible to:

– Develop a new theatre production tailored to both younger and older children.
– Build lightweight, mobile backdrops that can be used in emergency settings across Europe.
– Create interactive workshops where children become co-creators of the performance
– Train our artists so they can bring this show to life with strength and confidence.

Building the future of Changing Stories

Plan 5+

Changing Stories has amassed a wealth of expertise over the years. We aim to preserve this unique knowledge and pass it on to the next generation of artists and theatre makers.

To maintain and pass on our expertise, we have a plan for the next five years. Our goal is to establish a strong foundation for both short and long term endeavours. In addition to executing our theatre projects, we aim to achieve two major impact ambitions:

• Deepening and expanding our methodology.
• Developing training and educational programmes for social-artistic education.

This growth will enable us to expand as an organisation and increase the impact of our theatre projects.

Become a Supporter for plan 5+

We aim to be a lasting source of inspiration for anyone who wants to utilise the power of theatre for positive social change. It’s an exciting journey ahead. We don’t have extra funds to grow. All donations to Changing Stories go towards the execution of theatre projects. Therefore, we are seeking 50 supporters willing to invest development funds over five years. 

This will enable us to bring Plan 5+ to life and provide Changing Stories with a solid foundation for the future.
