In Motion Pictures
In Motion Theatre Company
Established in October 2016, In Motion Theatre is a Scottish based touring new-writing theatre company. Set-up and led by producer, playwright & actress Lisa Nicoll, alongside a team of associates, the company creates and tours both its own work and the work of others across Scotland. The work they produce is focused on contemporary new stories which are often inspired by place, people or true stories.
See Me have worked with Lisa at In Motion on a series of projects exploring stigma and mental health.
The Voice Behind the Picture
In 2020, Fourteen writers worked with Lisa to create stories/monologues around the theme "The Voice Behind the Picture". Over a series of live and recorded workshops and one to one development, conducted over 5 weeks, each writer created a 5- minute story that moves us beyond what people see, hear or take at face value. Each actor then recorded one of the monologues in their own home under lockdown conditions.

Hidden Women
In 2020 Inspired by a project led by See Me volunteer, Susan Falconer, 10 women in their 50s worked with Lisa to create monologues expressing something important or personal to them. The resultant monologues are both humorous and moving portrayals of interior lives that are not always shared.
Veteran's Voices
In 2022-23 Lisa worked with six Veterans or family members of veterans to create individual monologues which were released as a series of podcasts. This podcast was created alongside See Me’s Veteran’s campaign.
