In March of 2017, The Apothetae presented "Spirits of Another Sort" at Queens Theatre. This led to a strong partnership between our two organiations, and the eventual creation of Theatre For All, a training program specifically for early-career Deaf and disabled actors. Gregg Mozgala, Founding Artistic Director & Sara Buffamanti, Head of Education & Applied Practice were instrumental in this initiative's creation. Such a program is long overdue.
"If I could go back in time to the start of my career, I would want to be part of Theatre For All. Representation matters. Not only on the stage and screen, but in training environments like the one Queens Theatre has so painstakingly and passionately created," Mozgala said. "There is no other program like it in the country. Queens Theatre understands that truly inclusive theater is about reflecting the experience of ALL of us."
