Composed by 'British Composer Award' Winner Adam Gorb to a libretto written by Ben Kaye, Anya17 was written specifically to raise awareness of the secret world of Sex Trafficking, where up to 800,000 young women and children are Trafficked into the EU every year.

Directed by the award winning director of Slave – A Question of Freedom, Caroline Clegg, Anya17 exposes the intertwined lives of those sold into sexual slavery as they struggle to survive in the hope of ultimate salvation.
