A sometimes comic, sometimes heartbreaking journey into the world of autism
The return of the sold-out 2020 production. What I (Don’t) Know About Autism is a sometimes comic, sometimes heartbreaking journey into the world of autism, performed by autistic and non-autistic actors. Sandra is looking for love. Gordon is seeking acceptance. Simon just wants these parents to stop talking for two minutes so he can get on with teaching their kids. And Casper? Casper is not here.
What I (Don’t) Know About Autism takes the audience on a highly theatrical journey. The play mixes narrative, song, dance and direct address to explore the contentious and often misunderstood subject matter. Inspired by the writer’s own experiences with autism, the play celebrates autistic identity whilst offering deeper insight and understanding to non-autistic audiences.
