Anyone who attended the Centre’s conference earlier this year will have been fortunate to hear Jody O’Neill present on her experiences of autism and how it led her to write the play ‘What I (Don’t) Know About Autism’. 

As theatres open again, her play is returning to the stage, and you can have the opportunity to see it in person or online on a range of dates from 26 October- 20 November. 

‘What I (Don’t) Know About Autism’ takes the audience on a highly theatrical journey. Performed by a cast of autistic and non-autistic actors, it is a sometimes comic, sometimes heartbreaking look at the world of autism. The play mixes narrative, song, dance and direct address to explore this contentious and often misunderstood subject matter. 

 

Inspired by the writer’s own experiences with autism, the play celebrates autistic identity whilst offering deeper insight and understanding to non-autistic audiences.
