“Flute Theatre is the most alive, courageously genuine and humane theatre I have ever seen. It is a space where you can be mad, scared, lost and yet you still belong - simply because you are human and you deserve love. You show us a glimpse of the world I want to belong to.” Darya Lazaenko New Bulgarian University.

One day left of our BigGive Campaign
⭐️Supporting autistic people with unique theatre⭐️

ALL DONATIONS WILL BE DOUBLED

We make our unique performances where the need is greatest.

The film shows us performing our Tempest for autistic people on the rooftops of the Marga Wellness Centre in Kolkata last December. When we’d arrived at this incredible centre, there was no room big enough for the performance so we went up to the roof and did the show there. It was an astonishing experience.

In 2022, we performed our interactive Shakespeare productions in refugee camps with Ukrainian Refugees.

From 2020-2021 during the pandemic, we adapted our shows for one autistic person at a time and gave over 1000 online adapted live performances.

Next month we begin our King Lear for young autistic adults in London meeting the need of our autistic community who are in danger of being completely forgotten.

Please help us continue to bring our uniquely transformative Shakespeare where the need is greatest.

“Every autistic child should have the opportunity to experience the magic of the Flute Theatre. Thank you, thank you, thank you.” Gabrielle Ettridge Teacher, Tower Hamlets

We perform around the world, speaking the language that our participants will understand best.

With your help we will always continue our performances with our extraordinary autistic community in London.

And we will continue performing in Catalan in Barcelona and in Bengla in Kolkata.

Moreover, our work transcends the spoken word. Our language is one of the body, the heart and the soul. Our performances share confidence and strength with autistic people and their families.

Please help Flute Theatre continue to shine a light for profoundly autistic people around the world.

“We continue to live in hope that the work of the Flute Theatre may continue as they make it so easy for Jack (26) to access and have brought a great sense of inclusivity that we have not seen anywhere else!” Mother of Jack

For more than a decade, Flute Theatre has been at the centre of my sons creative life, and the company’s unique approach to Shakespeare is deeply attuned to his way of being in the world. For young adults like Gabriel (27), there is nothing remotely comparable with what Flute has to offer, and it has become essential to his well-being”. Father of Gabriel

We perform Shakespeare with the most locked away autistic people, the people most of the world never see. Loneliness and sadness can often be part of the autism puzzle especially as people get older. We aim to combat this isolation with community, art and comradeship where the barriers of anxiety can melt away to reveal the beauty and gentleness possible in every day life.

In April we will begin creating our King Lear for autistic adults. We have known many of the autistic people we are working with since they were teenagers and now ten years on, we are creating a completely new project especially for them.

We have funding to make a start for four weeks. Your donations will support us to continue after that.
