A team of performers heading to the Edinburgh Fringe have spoken up about the challenges they face with their disabilities.
Andrew Slade and Lexi Wolfe are bringing their one woman show After Shakespeare to the capital, where Lexi portrays four different Shakespeare characters - and Andrew handles everything behind the curtain. Both of them have ADHD, Andrew has diagnosed autism and long covid, while Lexi is dealing with fibromyalgia and undiagnosed autism.
The team, who live in London, need accommodation where they can rest, follow a strict diet and a certain schedule which allows them to continue a long run of performances at the Fringe. They’re hoping that they can prove that with certain conditions and disabilities, it doesn’t mean you’re unable to achieve and be successful.
