Sick + Twisted Theatre Inc.

LXCL:Sick + Twisted Theatre Inc. creates innovative theatrical productions that reflect the experiences of living with disabilities. We support and showcase artists with disabilities and enhance access to theatre for all audiences with the accessibility services we provide.

Artists with disabilities enjoy many advantages in the development and pursuit of our craft: Living with a disability means living in a world that can be dangerous, therefore artists with disabilities are accustomed to taking big risks. The danger we live with makes us daring artists.Living with a disability means applying mindfulness to all that we do, therefore artists with disabilities are accustomed to applying focused effort to the tasks at hand. The need for mindfulness gives us the kind of focused presence that leads to artistic rigour.Living with a disability means having to figure out our own ways of completing daily tasks, therefore artists with disabilities approach problem-solving with greater mental agility.&nbsp; Creative innovation is one of disabilities side effects. Sick + Twisted embraces these advantages, creating work that is risky, rigorous and innovative, an accurate reflection of the experience of living with disability. We have what the rest of the world needs. Artists with disabilities are grossly underrepresented in the creation and presentation of theatre in Canada. Yet all performance is rooted in the body and much exploration of the human condition is rooted in the recognition of the fragility of this flesh. Artists with disabilities are perforce engaged in anexploration of the body which is both specific and universal. We have an understanding of the truths of the human condition that can only be arrived at by confronting the challenges presented to us by our exceptional bodies. But these truths are universal. We have what the rest of the world needs. Sick + Twisted Theatre Inc. is committed to: - Creating and presenting theatrical productions that explore and reflect the experience of living with a disability.- Supporting the professional development of theatre artists, technicians andadministrators with disabilities through mentoring and apprenticeships.- Enhancing and expanding access to theatre for audiences with disabilities.
