A new production is coming to the Courtyard next month, Monday 28 – Wednesday 30 March at 11am and 1.30pm.
Frozen Light Theatre’s production of 2065 is a futuristic, sensory production for audiences with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD).
Frozen Light is renowned for creating engaging and high-quality theatre for audiences with PMLD through combining multi-sensory moments, live music, signing and poetic language.
Frozen Light Artistic Director, Lucy Garland, says; “Although set in a dystopian world, 2065 is ultimately a story of the power of people to change the world for the better. It holds a lot of joy and celebratory moments and this felt important to share during the pandemic. It is the ultimate privilege to be able to join our audiences on stage and share the magic of theatre with them once more.”
