Inclusive: all abilities, all experience, all ages, all etc. You are included if you are willing to do theatre and willing to keep everyone safe. We have asked people to leave before for not ..

So, we reach out through community linkages to target various groups who experience social barriers.

Our president is Douglas Robins who lives with Duchennes MD. He is amazing!

When I cast a show, I ask: do you want to be in it? If the answer is "yes" , you are IN! Then I fit the roles to the pool of actors. We usually produce a Shakespeare play per year. He wrote heaps of characters. I also split characters: when we did Romeo & Juliet, I split Juliet into 5 because it's an enormous role for young women. We did a sci-fi/steam punk version, and Juliet was a 5-clone!

Yes, 2023 show is Antony & Cleopatra. We got a modest grant to do it and at the same time examine the benefits of social inclusion.

People experience joy, hope and belonging.
