A Change of PACE
The motion
That the Parliament commends the PACE Youth Theatre in Paisley for supporting its young members through this difficult and challenging time by delivering the programme, a Change of PACE, which offers online learning opportunities to provide a creative outlet and help the young people deal with the current situation; notes that the activities are tailored to different age groups, including tasks and challenges for members to do at home, regular videos, live chats and links to plays and theatre to watch online; recognises that the initiative was opened by the actor Mark Rowley, who is from Paisley, with a live virtual question and answer session and a programme of masterclasses and question and answer sessions with PACE alumni who have gone onto to work in the arts industry; notes that this programme of events is being delivered on a pay-what-you-can basis to allow young people with families whose incomes may have been interrupted to take part, and wishes PACE every success with this and its future endeavours.
