THEATRICS BY PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES POKE FUN AT ERRONEOUS BELIEFS

Interact Theatre Company is back! And it seems the age-old attitudes about disability haven't gone away. Why is it that we still see adults with disabilities treated as children, as threats to society, as incapable of living a normal life in the community? Examine these persistent attitudes through the real-life stories of people with disabilities and learn what to do about it.

Short, humorous video skits and exercises give groups the tools to recognize and challenge these every day misperceptions. Ideal for staff, caseworkers, and new self-advocacy groups.
