From sensory play to role play, we do drama differently because…
everyone can play!
Joyful creativity for young people who communicate in their own way.
We use a non-verbal physical theatre practice to collaborate with people with intellectual disabilities, creating joyful sessions which reflect and celebrate each individual’s unique creativity.
The sessions work to foster the participant’s agency, capability, creativity and connection.
Through our play-based practice, using music, improvisation and physical theatre, we support the development of each individual’s confidence and self expression. This isn’t drama as you know it.
