The Graeae Theatre Company asked five Deaf and disabled writers for short plays responding to a randomly assigned TV genre.
And they can’t wait to share what the writers come up with!
I am delighted to be one of the cast members and to work with such talented and friendly creatives.
The evening will be hosted by star of stage and screen Sharon D. Clarke (most recently seen in The Gift for Crips without Constraints) alongside playwright Leanna Benjamin (writer of The Gift), with work presented from some of the finest writing talents from across the UK: Amy Bethan Evans, Adam Fenton, Kathryn Golding 金頁, Kate Lovell and Nicole Joseph.
The work will be read by professional actors Melody Brown, Amelia Cavallo, Evlyne Oyedokun, Racheal Tse and Bea Webster and directed by Cheryl Martin, Nickie Miles-Wildin and Naomi Wirthner.
So put your chips in the oven and let Netflix ask if you’re still watching. Our take on the boxset brings you everything from sci-fi to period drama, performed LIVE and script-in-hand by some of the UK’s finest Deaf and disabled actors.
The first Crips with Chips took place in person at our award-winning Bradbury Studios in February 2020. This time we’re bringing it to YOU.
Tickets are free. But if you can spare The Graeae what you might’ve paid for chips, donate to Graeae justgiving.com/graeae.
