Why is it important?
It shows that the many barriers of access to the industry can be overcome with thoughtfulness and that there are real tangible benefits for theatre companies, participants and the industry in general.
Perspectives
It is hoped that this is interacted with by the wider theatrical community as some of the recommendations and learning can be taken into consideration in artistic planning meetings, making for a more equitable world for us all.
