Join EPIC Players on a neuro-diverse journey Into the Woods! Based on the Grimm Brothers’ most popular folktales, Into the Woods is a reimagining of what can happen when beloved fairy tale characters meet on hilarious, soul-stirring and often times heartbreaking paths in the woods. Be careful what you wish for - you just may get it.
EPIC Players is a leading neuro-diverse theater company in New York City that believes everyone has a talent and our differences are our strength. EPIC provides opportunities for performers with developmental and other disabilities to appear on stage and screen. (EPIC stands for Empower, Perform, Include, Create.) This is EPIC’s most inclusive production to date, featuring artists from the Neurodiverse, Deaf, Disabled, Blind and Trans/LGBTQ+ community. The performance will be inclusive for both actors and audiences – powered by its diverse cast and creative team, and offering a relaxed atmosphere for patrons with developmental disabilities to talk and vocalize as they wish. Accessible seating, assisted listening devices, two scheduled captioned performances, sensory guides, noise canceling headphones, quiet zones and touch tours also will be available for audience members who need them.
