Taking Flight Theatre

At Taking Flight we make Bold, Unusual Theatre with D/deaf, Disabled and Non-Disabled Performers

At Taking Flight we make bold, unusual theatre productions with Deaf, disabled and non-disabled performers. Our work tours Wales and beyond and we often find ourselves in out of the way places, as traditional theatre venues.

Alongside our touring work, we nurture the next generation of disabled talent, both on stage & behind the scenes. We’ve done this through running inclusive professional training courses & mentoring schemes for people who identify as Deaf or disabled & are looking for the next step into a career in theatre, or to develop existing skills & build confidence.

With over 10 years experience, we’ve become the “go to” organisation in Wales for advice, information or inspiration on integrating access & working with inclusive casts. Find out more about how we could help you in our Work Together section.

We love to share what we’ve learnt about working inclusively, and host regular events aimed at inspiring other arts organisations to think outside the box when it comes to working with under-represented artists, and to explore new ways of making & marketing accessible work.
