DisAbility on Stage
Following successful previews in Melbourne, London and at Leicester Comedy Festival, disabled comedian Liz Carr brings her new show to the Soho Theatre on the 7th, 8th, 14th and 15th August 2009. Written and performed by Carr and directed by New York-based actor and director Christine Bruno, “It Hasn’t Happened Yet!” follows burgeoning comedian Alex Saunders as she navigates her way through the minefields of disability and comedy with wheelchair and alter-ego in tow.
“Nothing is sacred with Liz Carr and Melbourne is seldom graced with a talent like hers. Her play, which tells the story of Alex tackling the mainstream as a crip jokester, is a finely hewed piece where theatre and stand-up are seamlessly interposed.”
Art of Difference, Melbourne 2009
Originally commissioned in 2007 by The Arena, Wolverhampton and supported by The Arts Council, It Hasn’t Happened Yet! will be touring the UK in autumn 2009.
