A young woman on the autistic spectrum prepares for a much-needed job interview and society’s social norms are put under the spotlight in this mesmerizing clown theatre and dance show by Jen McArthur. Inspired by the different perspectives, struggles and joys of autistic children she worked with and her own recent journey to self-diagnosis, McArthur’s delightful character Echo doesn’t register social niceties, yet wants to be part of the world.
Echolalia is “a genuinely comic yet heartwarming piece of gentle brilliance. Five stars. ” - Edinburgh Guide
Audience members with hearing sensitivity please bring ear protectors for the sound of a dust buster/ vacuum cleaner being used. We will indicate this before it will be started in the performance.
Echolalia will be performed with an NZSL interpreter.
Created & Performed by Jen McArthur.
