Actors with disabilities like Down syndrome and autism star in original musicals. First, “Shops and Robbers,” a punny crime comedy at a grocery store. Then, a wacky Canadian baseball team trades the great white north for warm Hawaii in “Aloha, Eh?”
ArtStream presents the Silver Spring Inclusive Theatre Companies in:
Shops and Robbers
Directed by Britt Burr
Music Directed by Michael Morton
Good people turning to crime, a mystery to solve, and a whole grocery store full of puns.
Aloha, Eh? (or, There's No Hawaiian In Baseball)
Directed by Natalie Zanin
Music Directed by Andrew Stainer
A wacky Canadian baseball team trades the great white north for tropical Hawaii.
What are Inclusive Theatre Companies?
In ArtStream’s Inclusive Theatre Companies, adult actors with intellectual and developmental disabilities — including autism — create and perform an original musical. Actors, volunteer mentors, and theatre professionals work together to vote on a theme, create original characters, and improvise scenes. Those scenes are scripted into an original, one-act musical. Each performance presents two of these musicals in a double-bill.
Pre-sale tickets for Inclusive Theatre Companies are $12.50 and available at www.art-stream.org/see-a-show until 24 hours before the show.
Tickets are $15.00 at the door. Cash, check, or credit card are accepted at the door.
