SUMMARY:“Waiting for the Bus” Script Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join Art Spark Texas along with members of TILT Performance Group and ATX Theatre ConFab producers for a developmental reading of James Burnside’s “Waiting for the Bus\,” a new play on America’s long and troublesome history of institutionalizing people with disabilities. \nSynopsis: The history of the institutionalization of disabled people\, particularly people with intellectual and developmental disabilities\, in America began in the 1840s with the noble notion of “Moral Therapy.” That what would “cure” these people was light\, fresh air\, good food\, and honest work. Large gothic facilities were built in the countryside\, and they rapidly became overcrowded\, poorly maintained\, and poorly staffed while “patients” were subjected to all manner of experimental “procedures.” This play could easily have been just another horror show​. And that would certainly be a large portion of the truth\, but lost would be the humanity of the people who lived in these institutions—people with hopes and dreams and love\, people with family and friends. \nAfterwards\, stay for a talk led by AST Executive Director Celia Hughes where you can gain new perspectives about what it’s like to live with or without accommodations directly from cast and audience members living with disabilities and from advocates who specialize in providing accommodations. \nTHIS IS THE PLACE where you can finally ask all those burning questions about exactly how to create events that are more accessible to ALL audiences—with the added benefit of witnessing methods in action during the reading. \nWe will provide ASL interpreting\, audio description\, and open captions.

A national debate ensued\, and a divide in America endures over this controversial issue. What most people don’t know is that after the case\, Ms. Weddington and Norma McCorvey\, “Jane Roe” the plaintiff\, took divergent life paths that reflect the complicated polarization in our culture. Poignant\, surprising\, and with unexpected humor\, Roe illuminated the difficult choices women make and the passion each side has for its cause.” \nAge recommendation: 13 and up \nPride Night: Thursday\, April 9\, 2020\nASL Interpreted\, Audio Described\, and Open Captioned: Wednesday\, April 15\, 2020\nPost-Show Discussion: Wednesday\, April 15\, 2020\nChampagne Opening: Thursday\, April 16\, 2020 \nEvent info: https://tickets.zachtheatre.org/single/PSDetail.aspx?psn=9567 \nRegular Box Office Hours: Monday – Friday\, 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\, 512-476-0594 ext 1

SUMMARY:Audio Described Performance of “Antigonick”
DESCRIPTION:A contemporary translation of the classic Greek drama that asks\, “How do we care for the dead and how do we grieve amidst crisis?” Antigonick is strangely reimagined by the inimitable Classics scholar and award-winning poet\, Anne Carson. \nDirected by Salvage Vanguard’s co-producing Artistic Director Diana Lynn Small\, Antigonick stretches the boundaries of story in poetry and theater. Antigonick asks\, “What can one woman do in the face of unjust laws?” What is she willing to sacrifice? In this time worn story\, Carson points to the lessons we’re meant to learn from our past\, yet somehow fail to remember. \nPurchase tickets online or call 512-474-7886. Let the Salvage Vanguard know you want audio description. \n \n  \n
