Swedish critics doesn't usually review performances by amateurs. And those who never seen us doubt the capacity of the intellectually disabled. They fear showing up, meaning they should feel forced to be positive due to their handicap. The critics of several newspapers now joins the Moomstheatres opening nights. And the overwhelming reviews are not a work of pity for the disabled.
Lets give an example.
If the two before him didn't company him, he would have failed. A heavy play, where all our prejudices about the intellectually disabled, good or bad, was projected on to the maincaracter. Evert did that part, being the single force of the play, never to leave the stage for the 90 minutes it took to perform. He not only stood up for himself and his handicap, he did what noone else would be able to do in a theatrical way. Collaboration with professionals.
