We’ve spoken about access to large scale events such as music festivals, concerts, Susan may have mentioned something about the weird inclusion issue in running events, but what about smaller scale events like attending a play, or hang on – what if you are a playwright with a disability and you want to stage a production, what if you are a stage actor with a disability and want to perform? Do you get a fair chance?Jacqueline is the former Accessibility Manager of the Darlinghurst Theatre Company in Sydney and currently living in the UK studying her Masters in Dramagurty and Writing for Performance at Goldsmith's College at the University of London. They talk about everything from basic access for someone viewing a play to access on the stage to her thoughts on how people in the LGBTQI+ community perceive people with disabilities, and disability itself. We cover a lot, so strap in!Information in this episode:Darlinghurst Theatre Company: https://www.darlinghursttheatre.com/Ali Stroker - Actress, author singer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ali_StrokerRUH Global Impact - Disability influences a trillion dollars in disposable income?: https://www.ruhglobal.com/disability-influences-trillion-dollars-david-perez/The Dan Daws Show: https://dandawcreative.com/productions/the-dan-daw-show/Auslan with David (Instagram):  https://www.instagram.com/auslanwithdavid/CreditsThis episode has been written, produced and edited by Susan Wood.
