Although I don’t have many details about it, I’d like to flag this up today. My friend Katie is creating a play, Speechless, about a young girl with communication difficulties. She has cerebral palsy, and is infantalised by her parents, but inside she is a rebel trying to get out. It sounds a great premise, and the sort of thing we urgently need to see more of. There are still not enough disabled people in the media, particularly people with communication problems. I hope this play will start to tell ‘our’ side of the story. Kate tells me the process is only just starting, but I really hope it is a success.
