    EDWARD LEAR FOUNDATION 60 Bonham Road London SW2 5HG 020 7326 1811 Chronology of Disability Arts 1977- March 2003 by Allan Sutherland 1/6//05 Chronology of DisabilityArts 1/6/05 1 Introduction Context History is crucial to any culture, and it is essential to Disability Arts. It is through a sense of history that we define who we are, what journey we have undertaken and how far we have come. We also, implicitly, map out the future. By building upon the achievements of the past, as disability arts practitioners and the broader disability arts community, we can ensure that we are creating something solid that we hand down to those who come after us. But to be accessible to future generations, those achievements have to be documented. Otherwise, everything we do is transient, a superior form of occupational therapy. We might as well have been basket-weaving for the last twenty years. This process is particularly important for us as disabled people, because mainstream society devalues and marginalises so many of our achievements and struggles. We have to document our own culture, because it is not seen as significant enough to be documented in mainstream histories of the arts. We need to be able to hand something on to further generations that offers a vibrant view of disabled people, saying that there have been people like them before, and they created something of value, something that values them, something that is there for them to add to. And we can tell them the names of some of those people.

  • Foxfinder by Dawn King Directed by Blanche Mcintyre
    Press Information New Writing at the Finborough Theatre Season November 2011 to January 2012 Papatango Theatre Company in partnership with the Finborough Theatre present four world premieres The Papatango Playwriting Festival 2011 Foxfinder by Dawn King Directed by Blanche McIntyre. Designed by James Perkins. Lighting by Gary Bowman. Sound by George Dennis. Cast: Kirsty Besterman. Tom Byam Shaw. Becci Gemmell. Gyuri Sarossy. Papatango have teamed up with one of London's leading new writing venues, the Finborough Theatre to present the winning entries in the 2011 Papatango Playwriting Competition 2011, featuring this year's winning play Foxfinder by Dawn King which will play for a four week limited season from 29 November (Press Night: Thursday, 1 December 2011 at 8.30pm). “You, Foxfinder, must be clean in body and mind. Always remember that the smallest fault in your character could become a crack into which the beast may insinuate himself, like water awaiting the freeze that will smash the stone apart.” William Bloor, a Foxfinder, arrives at Sam and Judith Covey’s farm to investigate a suspected contamination. What follows will change the course of all their lives, forever. Foxfinder is a gripping, unsettling and darkly comic exploration of belief, desire and responsibility. Playwright Dawn King was one of ten writers from across the UK chosen for the BBC Writersroom 10 scheme, a prestigious mentoring and support programme. Through this she is developing a new play with West Yorkshire Playhouse. She is also currently writing My One and Only, an afternoon play for BBC radio 4. Her episode of horror series The Man in Black will broadcast on BBC radio 4 Extra later this year.

  • Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue Is a Signifi Cant Theatre-Specifi C Environmental Project Being Run by the Theatres Trust
    Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue is a signifi cant theatre-specifi c environmental project being run by The Theatres Trust. It aims to improve the environmental performance of forty-eight London theatres and raise awareness of how to make theatres greener. Ecovenue is promoting the sustainability of theatres and the reduction of carbon emissions through the provision of free theatre-specifi c, environmental advice. The project started in 2009 and runs until 2012. Forty-eight venues each undergo an Environmental Audit, and receive a Display Energy Certifi cate (DEC) and Advisory Report. They track their energy use through SMEasure. Each venue receives a second DEC a year after their fi rst to measure progress. Ecovenue includes a ‘DEC Pool’ of performing arts venues across the UK that have obtained DECs. The DEC Pool helps us to evaluate the project and share best practice and information, establish meaningful benchmarks, and provide a better understanding of energy use of theatres. Any theatre can join the DEC Pool. The Trust’s Theatres Magazine provides quarterly reports on the participants and the work of the Ecovenue project. The Theatres Trust Ecovenue project receives fi nancial support from the European Regional Development Fund.
