The programme of events is running throughout November and December
Liverpool-based arts organisation DaDa is hoping to “entertain and educate” with a winter programme of three distinct events. Unity Theatre alongside the Museum of Liverpool will present a premiere play and a night of cabaret along with their annual social justice lecture presented on the International Day of Disability.
Running throughout November and December, the first event is a new play, Toilet Paper Diaries, which is a “heartbreaking and hilarious tale that anyone with endometriosis or another condition which has led to medical gaslighting will instantly recognise”. The play has access at the heart of the play and includes creative captions and audio descriptions. There will be an optional touch tour before the play starts and British Sign Language interpretation.
Rachel Rogers and Ngozi Ugochukwu from DaDa said: “We are delighted to be back with an exciting and challenging programme of events this winter, which hopefully has something for everyone and will get people thinking. We are looking forward to welcoming audiences later this month as we continue to nurture, develop, and celebrate talent in disability and deaf arts and highlight disability as a social justice issue that all of society needs to address.
DaDa Cabaret, a popular staple in the programme, will take place at the Unity Theatre, found on Hope Place, on Friday, November 24. The politically charged night promises to be an “explosion of emotions and ideas”. The showcase of deaf, disabled, and neurodivergent acts includes poets Joan Cooper Snark and Shaun Fallows, comedians Lizzy Lenco and Eden MW and singer Miss Sunny Sarah.
Rounding off the programme is Edward Rushton Social Justice lecture at the Museum of Liverpool on Sunday, December 3. Named after the blind poet and abolitionist, this year Ashokkumar D Mistry will be exploring the theme of ‘Reclaiming Nonchalance’ - the value of disabled lives.Get a free National Trust pass worth up to £50 for your family day out this autumn
