Hello,
My name is Toby and I am new to the group. I am a disabled playwright and I want to be able to reflect disability on stage.
We live in a world of ever changing rights of women and men, LGBT community and transgender rights. Why is disability rights still being blocked and are still under-represented?

Hello,
Thank you.
Are there any disability campaigns and rallies around the South of England?

Hi @tobysimmonds313321, and welcome to the community! In my free time I'm a disabled theatre reviewer/blogger and certainly understand your frustrations with the underrepresentation in the industry.
You may like to search for organisations in your area that may be of interest. Hope this helps!
