Theater in working with special needs people

Workshop “Theater in working with special needs people” is comprised of practical activities: There will be physical, vocal and mental exercises, theatre games, interactive discussion, responses to activities, question and answer time.

The Community Theatre of Greensboro has been very successful in welcoming, accommodating and including the special needs community in their youth and adult productions, workshops and activities. Its yearly two week workshop, Onstage and Inclusive, takes nearly 40 actors of all ages and all disabilities on an incredible journey of personal growth, developing new life skills, getting in touch with their artistic talents and presenting a show to the community that is entertaining, moving and a great advocacy piece for the special needs population!

ORGANIZERS

Life Art

Life Art is a social enterprise set up in 2010 to bring together artists and communities for creative social development. Life Art’s vision is a transformed society where individuals and communities are the subjects of their own cultural, social and economic development, and can articulate and advocate for the cultural needs without fears, repression or abuse. We strongly believe that Life Art can enhance creativity and empower citizens to change society for people's benefit; and engender a strong cultural identity united by the recognition and respect for cultural diversity.
