Young DaDaFest develops young disabled artists by giving them a platform to perform in front of a large audience. The performers are aged between 12 to 25 and disabled, deaf or living with a long term illness or condition. Some of the groups will also be performing alongside actors from the theatre's Young Everyman Playhouse. The theme for this year's Young DaDaFest is Outside the Box. Young performers will examine how people are put into categories which can make them feel judged, isolated and limited. How do we break outside of the box?
