SUMMARY:ONLINE SEMINAR: Getting It “Right\,” or\, How One Autistic Playwright Learned to Stop Worrying About ‘Getting Autism Wrong\,’ And How You Can\, Too!
DESCRIPTION:SEMINAR DESCRIPTION \nAs Autism representation becomes increasingly discussed\, there is one question on many creative’s minds: How do we get Autism “right”? How do we not offend or alienate the community we’re trying to represent? Why is Autism representation important in the current climate? How can non-Autistic and Autistic theatre artists create a more equitable theatre sphere together? Dave Osmundsen discusses his journey as an Autistic playwright\, the current state of Autistic representation in the American theatre\, and how a person-centered approach to working with Autistic theatre-makers creates a better rehearsal room for everyone. Combining memoir\, media history\, and practical handguide\, this seminar will explore the importance of Autistic representation both on and off the stage\, and how we can move forward from getting Autism “right” to getting it “equitable.” \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n$10 discount for Tier 1 Members.\n \n                \n            \n                \n                    \n                        \n                                Registration nowOpen\n                        \n                    \n                    \n                        \n                                \n                                    Type\n                                    Seminar \n                                \n                                    \n                                        Dates\n                                            Tuesday\, December 15 from 6 – 8:00pm CT\n                                    \n                                \n                                    Venue\n                                    Online via Zoom\, check out this quick video on the process. \n                                \n                                \n                                    Cost\n                                    \n                                            $30 – ($20 for Tier 1 members)\n                                     \n                                \n                        \n                        \n                                \n                                    \n                                        \n\n  \n  \n  \n                                        \n                                        Contact\n                                    \n                                \n                                \n                                    \n                                        \n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n                                        \n                                        Recordings\n                                    \n                                \n                                \n                                    \n                                        \n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n                                        \n                                        Captioning\n                                    \n                                \n                                \n                                    \n                                        \n\n  \n  \n  \n                                        \n                                        Scholarship\n                                    \n                                \n                                \n                                    \n                                        \n\n  \n  \n                                        \n                                        Accessibility\n                                    \n                                \n                        \n                    \n                \n            \n        \n            \n                Recordings\n                Please note: Recordings are not available for missed class sessions. \n            \n            \n                Captioning\n                For all seminar or class sessions\, we enable Zoom’s auto-generated captioning.
