Not again...! Solidarity, Sue Odell CDG CDA, and thank you for your commitment!
Thrilled to be getting back to live theatre alongside an incredible cohort of artists - especially with a piece that has queer and trans disabled and neurodivergent joy at its heart. Huge thanks to CRIPtic Arts for the trust and opportunity🌈♿🎭
A rare tweet to say a huge, heartful thank you Call the Midwife and Rosie Jones for such empowering and nuanced representation of #CerebralPalsy. Makes me want to write a second PhD thesis because CtM clearly still cares so much about disabled people's stories! 💙
Like Richard, I was born prematurely: "sent before my time / Into this breathing world scarce half made up". I also have a scoliosis. As a disabled performer and theatre scholar, I no longer feel welcome in a venue I cherished. Solidarity Disabled Artists Alliance #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs
And forever in awe of the legendary Matilda Feyiṣayọ Ibini. So proud - hugest congrats and solidarity!
