It’s a Motherf**king Pleasure

Author(s): Samuel Brewer, Aarian Mehrabani and Chloe Palmer
Company: FlawBored and ASYLUM Arts
Running time: 1h 05min approx
Age recommendation: 16+

Someone at large PR company RIZE (yes, spelled with a Z) has ‘done an ableism’... very publicly. At the behest of non-disabled HR manager Helen Richardson (Chloe Palmer), all staff are required to undergo training on how to support disabled people.

Weaponising RIZE’s able-anxiety, disabled talent manager Tim (Samuel Brewer) strives to make disability an experiential brand where disabled voices should represent disabled voices. Otherwise, that’s still ableist, right?

Using the malleable, fame-hungry triple threat Ross (Blind, Gay & Brown), Tim begins to manipulate those around him. Together, he and Ross (Aarian Mehrabani) push to make disability the next cultural cachet people scramble for.
