Intrepid Theatre

Join Ben, Jacquie, Nick, Gen and their friends for an original children’s concert like nothing you’ve ever seen before. Created and performed by members of this years hit “The GREAT BIG SHOW” who also happen to be adult artists with “developmental disabilities”. Kids will learn more than Sesame Street could ever teach them, and have a lot more fun. greatbigshow.ca

NOTE – This show has relaxed performance measures and welcomes patrons who may benefit from a less restrictive audience environment, including a relaxed attitude to noise and movement, reduced extreme sound and lighting effects (no blackouts, strobes, projections or unsettling lighting changes), leaving house lights on at a low level, and allowing patrons to come and go as needed. Suitable for all ages including babes in arms, young children and up.

About the artist/company

The DeviANTs are a self-named musical theatrical comedy troupe that rose out of Lifetime Network’s Drama Club program. Featuring adult artists with developmental disabilities, they have been creating and performing for the last 2 years and will present completely original songs and sketches for children of all ages.
Most recently, the DeviANTs performed as a majority of the cast of “The Great Big Show” at the McPherson Theatre in February 2018.  The show was an enormous hit, selling over 1000 tickets and changing audience’s perceptions of the “developmentally disabled”.  We prefer the term “special abilities”.
