Individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities often have trouble attending public performances. ASGA is proud to partner with Tuesday Musical, E.J. Thomas and the Akron Civic Theatre on two inclusive performances during the month of October.  These events aim to remove stereotypes and biases and replace them with understanding and support, so all may enjoy the gifts our community offers.  The organizations received training in adapting and supporting individuals with autism and their families at the theater, opening their doors wider.

 

ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE

On October 10, Tuesday Musical will partner with Verb Ballets and Chamber Music Society of Ohio (CMSO) to celebrate two internationally known Akron arts icons: jazz pianist/composer Pat “Patsy” Pace and Ohio Ballet founder/choreographer Heinz Poll.
