Look I am really happy @TheStage exists but the paywall has to go. Not just for classism but accessibility. Does it open on a completely unrelated article for anyone else? Which then counts as one of your three? Do you really want to be with Telegraph as paywall publications...
how can you vow to unpack the disabled experience and ableism int play, that Richard experiences, without a disabled person playing Richard. like at this point it just makes no sense. “it will come round again” is a huge slap in the face. this statement is all sorts of yikes.

Well February, we’re here. Some of us made it. Some did not. The darkness retreats a little. The sun whispers to the night. “I am coming back”
Did a wolf write this
What is so dangerous is that because The Globe, one of the most well known theatre, is doing this and doubling down on their decision - people will see this as “permission” to do this. You are saying Disability is a costume. Erasing all the hard work of Disabled activism.

I haven't chatted about this on here because each time I think about it I relive all the years of trauma caused by ableism in the world, in the industry. It makes me sad, tired & I'm loosing my trust in people.

why is it so important that disabled people have autonomy over their own narratives? because if you don't, you get non-disabled men proposing reinstating institutionalisation as a way of "solving" and "dealing with" learning disabled people. this is a real world consequence.
Cllr Hammersley responds to being told that children with SEND were institutionalised with "they must have had better ways of dealing with them. Let's go back to some of those ways"
disabled theatre professionals: yeah this is ableist. non disabled theatre professionals: no it’s not cos we said so.
@danekaetchells Don’t worry it’ll come back round. I’ll never forget that 🤣😟
how can you vow to unpack the disabled experience and ableism int play, that Richard experiences, without a disabled person playing Richard. like at this point it just makes no sense. “it will come round again” is a huge slap in the face. this statement is all sorts of yikes.
