Theatres of Learning Disability: Good, Bad, or Plain Ugly?

By Matt Hargrave

Book Overview

Winner of the TaPRA New Career Research in Theatre/Performance Prize 2016

This is the first scholarly book to focus exclusively on theatre and learning disability as theatre, rather than advocacy or therapy. Hargrave provocatively realigns the - hitherto unvoiced - assumptions that underpin such practice and proposes that learning disabled artists have earned the right to full critical review.
