ART:DIS and The Necessary Stage proudly present ‘INVISIBLE’, a compelling exploration of disability, empathy, and the unseen/unspoken personal battles many of us face. Written by award-winning playwright Haresh Sharma, co-directed with Grace Kalaiselvi, this development showcase is presented as part of ART:DIS Emerging Artist programme that supports the professional development of disabled artists.
When Malini, a young disabled woman, starts her new job as a hotel cleaner, she is determined to do her best. Tensions rise when guest Anita loses her prized possession. Supervisor Safiah and hotel manager Jane attempt to diffuse the situation. However, the characters’ hidden struggles begin to surface, unveiling deeper questions about what disability means.
Access provisions are available for the neurodiverse, D/deaf, hard-of-hearing, visually-impaired and wheelchair users. Happening 10–11 May at ART:DIS @ Bukit Merah, join us: bit.ly/invisible-tickets
