What we do

Performing Arts Appreciation Support Courses

  • Organization : NPO Senior Theatre Network
  • Section : None
  • Type of Grant Program : Single

Outline

Participants on this course will learn about the support needed for people with disabilities when they attend stage performances.
People who work in theater companies and theaters as well as performers will participate in individual-oriented courses, which total 5 courses over 10 sessions and range from a “first step” session for grasping the basics to specific disability based learning.
Group-oriented courses will offer concrete lectures on both hardware and software, tailored to the individuality of the theater or production group and the locale. The most significant feature of the courses is that participants get to hear from disabled people themselves. We also provide training and work placements after the course for motivated participants.
