Award-winning original adaptations of Muslim and interfaith literature and heritage for radio, stage, screen and education since 1997.
On Monday we had the privilege of sharing #MultifaithStories from Judaism, Taoism, Christianity & Islam with prisoners at HMP The Mount. 🌿
From laughter to deep reflection, the men were moved — “the most stunning thing most of the men have ever seen.”
