Plans for 2021
Festival.
We are developing the idea of establishing a festival of disability performance. Inviting other companies to join us in a program of events that highlight the diversity and strengths of local disability performance groups. Should this prove successful, in the future we would like to extend invitations to national companies and perhaps even when times are better invite international performers to take part in our festival.

Performance space.
We continue to work hard to improve our small 'black box' theatre. A space that can serve our needs and the needs of the wider community. This will be wholly dependent on fund raising. However the owners of the building; the Skillwise board and a number of local community groups are fully behind the idea. We have applications for funds pending and will continue to fund raise on a smaller scale wherever possible. To enable us to increase our capacity and improve the amenities of the building.

New film projects.
This year we have started work on some short films. More rounded and detailed ideas, shot over a longer period. Using more filmic ideas and demanding a different acting style from the performers. You can watch these on our YouTube channel along with all the other video work we do throughout the year.

New photographic work.
Also this year we will endevour to start looking at photography in more detail. Challenging the way that individuals with disability are represented in terms of art photography. We will post work on the website as we develop it.
