"Working"



Channel surfing during the workday, employees will have the chance to watch their favorite television characters, past and present, tackle the tough topic of disability issues in the workplace.  From a lost episode of the “Brady Bunch” in which JAN finally outshines her more notable sibling, Marcia, by advocating for people with disabilities everywhere to the more contemporary “Survivor” and its tribal conflict, audiences are provided an innovative approach to raising the issues of disability etiquette, workplace accommodations, disability facts and figures, and so much more.

Allison and Sammy are profiled in the Northwest County Journal

Mission

An ensemble engaging in conversation, writing, 
sound, movement and theatrical exercises 
to develop and perform material 
around the culture of disability.
