In this panel led by some of the country’s leading advocates for disabled theatre makers, we’ll discuss casting initiatives related to disability inclusion for both theatre companies and training programs, as well as practical tools to help disabled artists and craftspeople succeed and find opportunity. We’ll share strategies and best practices for how to expand the culture of our organizations and training programs by nurturing and encouraging artistic practices rooted in authentic and inter-sectional lived experiences that reflect our changing world.  At this session, several members of the disabled community who recently participated in Actors Theatre of Louisville’s inclusive casting initiative will be present to share their experience.
