Touretteshero are going to mix things up in The Pit with an immersive theatrical event this Guy Fawkes weekend. Brewing in the Basement will be a catalyst for creativity; bringing everyone together to laugh, experiment and share ideas in a lively and collaborative environment. This is an invitation to rethink and explore what access to the arts for everyone means whilst challenging traditional boundaries of contemporary theatre.
Through a series of interdisciplinary and inclusive activities and performances, Touretteshero’s imaginative takeover celebrates the UK’s thriving disability arts scene. The event culminates in a parade through the Barbican Centre to celebrate diversity, difference, and disability culture.
