When I was a kid, my parents took me to the theater a lot. As a mom with a child on the autism spectrum, however, it's been hard to share my love of the theater with my daughter.

To think that a community theater here in the Triangle was making theater accessible to special needs kids was just, in the words of the young Alice herself, awesome.
