Snippet:
In an airy rehearsal space upstairs at Arts House, the cast of new play Specials gather. They jump between scenes and time frames – from the harrowing disability royal commission to flashbacks to the neglectful and depressing (and fictional) Shitty River Special School for disabled children. The cast play multiple roles across the two settings, a la Wizard of Oz.
