Thanks to a grant from the Royal Academy of Engineering, The Freewheelers Theatre Company and Redbird Media are producing a creative project bringing disabled artists and engineers together.
We will be exploring notions of accessibility together through a series of theatrical workshops and the creation of a video depicting a fictional island that has been designed and engineered specifically for disabled people.
We will be running five x two-hour development sessions with engineers, as well as delivering a series of workshops for schoolchildren once the video is produced.
We are delighted to be working with...

We are hoping that engineers who need to think about accessibility and the Disability Discrimination Act will find this a stimulating, informal and creative way of exploring ideas and developing a deeper understanding of disability issues. We also hope to forge lasting relationships that will push the boundaries of our creative work.
