Every young person is uniquely creative.

Developed over more than 30 years in collaboration with young people with intellectual disabilities, this music-led, non-verbal approach has inspired artists, educators and organisations around the world.

Join Richard Hayhow BEM, Director of the Open Theatre Company UK, and Brisbane's In-Person Creative team for a unique one-day intensive exploring how non-verbal creative practice can unlock participation, communication, connection and creativity for young people with intellectual disabilities.

Playful, practical and inspiring.

No drama experience needed.
