Performances begin on May 7.
By: Stephi Wild Apr. 25, 2025
Phamaly Theatre Company, the nation's leading disability-affirmative theatre, proudly announces Pericles: An Adaptive Show for People with Cognitive Disabilities, touring three Colorado cities this May. Adapted from Shakespeare’s Pericles and directed by Kelly Hunter of London’s Flute Theatre, this unique production uses the internationally acclaimed Hunter Heartbeat Method to create an engaging, interactive experience for individuals with cognitive disabilities.
Community members may participate in sensory drama games onstage (with participant tickets) or enjoy the performance from the audience (with audience tickets). No prior theatre or Shakespeare experience is necessary—just a willingness to play.
