About this Event

#CripTheScript is a term coined by multi-award-winning Disabled writer, performer, and producer Ophira Calof. What does it mean? To challenge, reframe, and reclaim language, systems, stories and stages to centre ‘Crip’, or disability, identities, experiences, and culture. The webinar examined challenges and solutions faced by Disabled creators, on-set and on-screen, and brought attention to the unique voice Disabled artists bring to storytelling.
