On the Verge Conference - Learning Disability & the Main Stage / Birmingham Hippodrome / West Midlands / Birmingham

Description

How do we open up our main stages to Learning Disabled performers? How do we build structures of support that encourage Learning Disabled Artists to flourish? How do we ensure Learning Disability is central to the diversity debate?

Are we ‘On The Verge’ of a breakthrough?

‘On The Verge’ will examine these questions frankly and supportively through a dynamic and thought-provoking day of conversations, workshops and performances. The conference brings together performers, directors, programmers and casting directors to create a platform for sharing best practice across arts organisations.

Confirmed speakers:

  • Lyn Gardner, The Guardian
  • Erica Whyman, Deputy Artistic Director of the RSC.
  • Charlotte Bevan, Director of Creative Diversity, the National Theatre
  • Henry Normal, Writer and Comedian
  • Sarah Gordy, performer
  • Richard Hayhow and BecauseWeCanCanCan
  • Ben Pettit-Wade, Hijinx Theatre
