Unique Stories is a disability-led play, adapted from a book, aimed at breaking down the stigma around disability. This multi-media piece full of truth, humour, music, and more shares stories of the eight artists and the full lives they lead.

We believe we can break down the stigma that exists around the disability community by sharing our voices and stories; by showing audiences that we exist in a way that is exciting and fun but also sometimes challenging and that we have similar fears and struggles as others do.

After two successful readings, this three-performance workshop run takes the work from the page to the stage.

According to Luke Andersen, Executive Director of Stop Gap Foundation, “The world needs to see this.”

Unique Players would like to acknowledge the Ontario Arts Council and the Government of Ontario for their support.
With additional support from Miles Nadal JCC’s Wagner Green Centre for Access & Inclusion and Community Living Ontario.

All performances are relaxed* and include elements of integrated audio description.
*no sudden/dramatic lighting changes or sounds, house lights on low, ability to leave and re-enter (at specific times), quiet space, on stage description/warnings/audience support.
