Summer camp

Every year, Ulysses Theatre in collaboration with the University of Edinburgh organises a summer camp for children who are victims of conflict. The camps
take place on the Puntižela peninsula, halfway between Brijuni and Pula, and include in particular children from the Centre for Children with Special Needs Mostar, where according to UNICEF, children experienced the highest level of trauma from the conflicts of the 1990s.

The camps are intended to give the children an enjoyable summer holiday by the sea with swimming and sports activities. But the children also compose an opera or musical, creating words, music, design and stage direction themselves and performing the resulting production at the end of the camp.

The camps are led by Nigel Osborne, and bring together volunteer carers from Croatia, Bosnia-Hercegovina, Kosovo and the UK, including the principal children's Creative outreach teams in the region.
