Current Projects:
- Belle’s on Wheels is an autobiographical performance depicting Clarity Belle’s journey through recovery from a life-altering injury to a new appreciation of her life. This personal piece of theatre addresses cultural myths and stereotypes that have traditionally separated persons with disabilities from the “mainstream.”
- Tail Tell Tale is a one-woman performance … an intimate conversation shared by a woman who claims she “grew into a mermaid.”
Both performances run less than one hour, are appropriate for high school – adult audiences, and involve minimal technical requirements. Presenters must provide a venue which is wheelchair accessible to performer and audience members.
