How to get here
This March we support “Disability rights….and wrongs”!
PR firm “Rize” faces accusations of ableism, unleashing a whirlwind of spin, changing narratives, and PC-culture. Enter Ross, a Blind influencer with his star on the rise, who is ready to profit off the guilt of non-disabled, anxious people. Will Rize and Ross come out on top, or will they get derailed by the shitstorm?
Multi-award winning and disability-led theatre company FlawBored delivers a meta-theatrical satire on the monetization of identity politics, the guilt of non-disabled people, and what it costs to do the right thing.
“Witty, hilarious and absurd” (Disability Arts Online) and a ‘fully’ accessible show (well.. we tried!)
All performances will be audio described, relaxed and have captioning available.
