Established in 2019 as a Limited Company we started trading as a Community Interest Company in April 2020. What we believe
The best theatre is made by diverse groups of people working together. The routes into theatre training and theatre careers may be different and actors may come in through Separate Doors, but we believe we can, and should, all perform the same excellent work, in the same hous
e. What we do
We bring together exceptional learning-disabled and non-disabled talent from across the UK. We develop high quality theatre making with integrated casts – that is, casts of actors with and without learning disabilities. We train actors, writers, directors and producers in the Silent Approach, a pioneering non-verbal method which allows all kinds of actors to work together with equality. We share our expertise with the theatre, film and TV industries. Who we are
Our advisory board of leading actors with learning disabilities and neuro-diversities (Downs’ Syndrome, Asperger’s Syndrome and Autism) guide our strategic planning and our outputs. We’re LGBT and disabled-led; cancer survivorship and mobility issues also inform the lived experience of our core team.
