Odd Arts Annual Report 2020-2021
Well, what a year. One which has felt overwhelmingly sad for so many reasons and for so many people. We want to take this opportunity to look back on the hope, resilience and achievements attained by our Odd Arts beneficiaries, staff and volunteers amidst such adversity. To reflect on the impact achieved during this time feels fantastic, but this has only been possible with the support and trust of our communities, beneficiaries and donors. Please take a minute to share our pride by reading the stories and projects from the last year.
Building resilience and overcoming adversity through dance & drama
This blog brings together Odd Arts and Company Chameleon to reflect on their own learning from one another, and on what Dance Drama can do to impact people experiencing incarceration, trauma and other barriers.

Diary of International Interns during Covid 19
It was cold November 2019 in Germany, I was sitting at my desk on my Laptop and my eye came across the name of Odd Arts on my University’s placement list. I looked them up and they caught me right away – I loved their concept and their work so I tried my luck at applying for an internship. Luck was on my side as a lecturer was already in contact with them and said they could take two interns in. I sent my CV over and got an interview with the CEO. On the day of my Skype interview, I was so nervous and anxious but luckily for me the interview was really good and Odd wanted to take me in as an intern. I was so happy I could have jumped through the roof (I didn’t do it though!) and when I heard Oli would be joining me, I was even happier! After that, it was all about doing the paperwork so that I could actually start at Odd Arts in March with the agreement from my university.
