This article describes a collaborative piece of theatre made by members of Headway, a charity working with head-injured people, and students and staff at Parkside Community College, an 11-16 school in Cambridge. The authors consider how the piece employs multimodal forms of expression and representational resources (including body, voice, and the technologies of theatre and media) to challenge the invisibility of disability, and to perform a narrative of identity and resistance pieced together from combinations of memory, aspiration and polemic. The article also briefly considers the policy context of specialist Arts colleges in relation to this kind of project.
