Cracks. [Dramatic performance]

Jeram, Trisha

Abstract

"Cracks" tells the story of Bob and Debbie, whose lives gradually interweave to show stark differences in health outcomes due to inequitable access to health and social care services. "Cracks" was written and directed by Trisha Jeram, a student nurse in the School of Health and Social Care at Edinburgh Napier University, and acted by students, staff and members of the public. It was first performed in public in June 2019, using a novel combination of live action and recorded footage from the film version. The film itself later released on the 10th July 2019 via YouTube. Following requests from other universities, Cracks will be taken "on the road" during 2020. This will showcase this innovative, student-led, approach to teaching and learning to support nursing students across the UK grapple with the complex reality of health and social care integration.
