Self & Other reaches unravels the intricate threads that separate one individual from another. for though no man is an island, disabled people know intimately what it is to be unable to be self without the support of another…
The cast of writer-performers around whose monologues 'Self & Other' is constructed are:
Fragments, by Ada Eravama
Grace’s influencer lifestyle comes into conflict with the complexities of familial love, asking us what we really value
Bumps, by Dr. Jessi Parrott
Bumps explores the joy and pain of journeys (literal and figurative) towards accepting and embracing your body and brain, when society – and your own mind – tells you that you shouldn’t.
The Moon Jellyfish, by Simone Roach, performed by Theo Angel
A captivating love letter to the beauty, heritage, and heart of the disabled community.
Linda (Constellation), by Tom Ryalls, performed by Georgia Burnell
Linda wants to live forever. She knows this isn't possible but her plan is to tell a joke so good that she is at least remembered forever, but her epileptic seizures are getting in the way of that. She has another seizure in the middle of a set, heads to hospital, and does what she always does to recover - goes star gazing on the roof. But tonight is different, tonight she finally imagines herself as a constellation, and possibly finds a new way to live forever.
