Herts Inclusive Theatre is an award winning charity that uses the arts and wellbeing practices to build confidence and skills among their participating members. This year for the Watford Fringe they've produced a short film made freely available on Youtube called The Show Must Go On...Online. It's a fully inclusive production filmed by participants of all abilities and all ages during the Covid19 lockdown.
As you'd expect, they've made the film as inclusive as possible, including that thoughtful and inexpensive touch of providing accurate and unobtrusive subtitles, something a lot more online films could do well to follow.
The film itself is an amusing mix of comedy skits, songs and music, loosely woven around the production of Brushes With Greatness, a musical about dental hygiene. Expect puns aplenty! And fun aplenty. It's a pleasure to watch everyone involved throw themselves into the silliness and have such a great time. Good luck to Herts Inclusive Theatre with all their great work and future endeavours, let's hope you're all together back at Watford Fringe for 2021!
p.s. My favourite pun: Bob Flossy!
