ABOUT
Spectrum Theatre, Sheffield is ...
... a theatre group, formed in 2016. Together, its members have a range of experience of the autistic spectrum and of theatre work. It’s ‘integrated’ – some members are on the spectrum, some aren’t, some are younger, some are older, some very experienced in theatre, some less so. It’s a charitable organisation – all its members are volunteers.
From an original group of 10, we now have over 40 members.The balance of members in terms of those diagnosed on the spectrum and those not remains at 50/50.
