Touring across ACT, NSW and Victoria, this project empowers community organisations to become more inclusive for autistic people, people with psychosocial and intellectual disabilities.
Using Forum Theatre, a hands-on, interactive model that allows audiences to explore real-world dilemmas, this program builds understanding and equips community groups—including sports clubs, arts collectives, and social organisations—with the tools to transform accessibility in meaningful ways.
The show is informed by extensive community consultation and performed by a cast and creative team with lived experience of disability.
This one-of-a-kind initiative uses the power of theatre to drive change — not through lectures or handouts, but through connection, conversation and lived experience.
