How to Keep Working in theatre with a long term illness or disability
Discussions around:
finding groups that support your issue, and places that are willing to accommodate your issue.
Some artists and organisations are willing to make adjustments.
They cant always meet your needs but an acknowledgement and acceptance is very positive. It makes you feel that you are valued as an artist.
Companies don't realise that they are legally discriminating if they don't make adjustments.
Self producing can work - because can decide about scheduling. Can work restricted hours and put in a processing day.
Question - how to spread work out over a long time and still keep collaborators engaged (financially and artistically)
Become more comfortable with relinquishing a sense of productivity from before illness/disability
Programme in rest time - before and after a busy period.
Get better at vocalising what you need.
Create an access rider to send to people you will work with.
Sometimes you just can't do it, energy wise - and that's shit.
