A ONE-WOMAN show telling the extraordinary stories of refugees from across the world is coming to Chipping Norton in conjunction with an exhibition of prints made by detainees at Campsfield House Immigration Removal Centre in Kidlington.

The Uninvited, currently touring the UK, is performed by Elizabeth Mansfield and features setting and costumes by Richard Aylwin. It will be at The Theatre on Tuesday, January 24.

Premiered in the USA in the wake of 9/11, The Uninvited celebrates the Universal Declaration of Human Rights through the words, music, humour and courage of those forced to flee their homes and make a new life in foreign lands.

Poems, writings and testimonies will flow into songs sung both in English translation and original languages including Spanish, Yiddish, Filipino, Farsi and Bosnian. The performance promises to be thought-provoking, insightful and moving with Elizabeth Mansfield's acting and singing being described by critics as "mind-blowing."

There will also be a post-show discussion, at which staff from Campsfield House will also be present. Tickets can be booked online at www.chippingnortontheatre.co.uk or by calling Box Office at 01608 642350.

The Campsfield House exhibition will run from next until Friday, January 27. It features prints made by eight detainees following two inspiring days with acclaimed local artist Mohamed Bushara. In collagraph printing, a plate is used to produce several identical images.

Various materials are applied to the cardboard plate, depending on their ability to absorb or repel ink. The group used a wide variety of materials including string, feathers and leaves to make prints on an etching press, in a process requiring not only artistic talent but also great skill, patience and precision.

The Gallery is open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am-1pm, and during all live shows and films. Admission is free.

Tickets for the show cost £10 (concessions £8, schools £5).

The Uninvited will also be at The Everyman in Cheltenham on Thursday and Friday, January 12 and 13.
