Disability and Equity as Creative Forces

Join us for a conversation between dancer, choreographer, and engineer Laurel Lawson of Kinetic Light and director/dramaturg Diana Wyenn. With work and process informed by disability, these disabled artists will discuss and offer perspectives on how practices of equity, community, and access are creative forces in the creation and reception of live performance.

This conversation is presented as part of Directors Lab West Connects, an 8-day series of livestreamed conversations and Q&As crafted for and by theater directors and choreographers that will reflect upon, explore, and inspire paths forward in the transformed and transforming nature of live theater. Curated to reflect a wide range of topics, each session will feature speakers sharing their unique perspectives for 30 minutes, followed by a live moderated 15-minute Q&A.
