One For The Road
November 2023
Written by Sarah Leigh and based on the short story by Stephen King. Produced by Bedazzle Inclusive Productions and Inclusivity Films.
Foundation Panto: Jack and the Beanstalk
December 2023
In 2023, the Foundation Course produced an inclusive pantomime. We took an adaptation of Jack and the Beanstalk on tour to local schools, featuring music, dance and Makaton, performing to over 300 children.
Imagine... Crowd-pleasers
November 2023
The theme for this year’s Imagine… showcase was Crowd-pleasers. Our Community Theatre groups provided us with some spectacular performances, including two entire numbers - Don't Stop Believin' by Journey and Rule The World by Take That, complete with Makaton signing.
Foundation Course: Tales Untold
July 2023
This year, the Foundation Course created a piece inspired by the tales of the Brothers Grimm and took their show “Tales Untold” to The Junction in Cambridge.
Imagine... Legends
November 2022
The theme for this year’s Imagine… showcase was Legends. Students from across all our Community Theatre groups, plus our dance troupe, wowed the audience with classics from Elvis, to Abba to the Spice Girls. The programme also included two whole group numbers: Coldplay’s Viva la Vida and, of course, Imagine by John Lennon, complete with Makaton signing.
TYPICAL?
July 2022
Based on the BiP production I’m Non Typical, Typical, and produced in partnership with Inclusivity Films, Typical? is a short film, due for release early next year. A group of disabled individuals challenge the narrative that society has placed on them. The screenplay is adapted from the original script for our Edinburgh Fringe production.
Foundation Course: Shakespearean Showcase
July 2022
In summer 2022, our performers jumped into the world of Shakespeare and produced work spanning a range of forms, inspired by the Bard. From devised pieces to original songs, monologues to interpretive movement, the Bedazzle Foundation students explored the clash between classical and contemporary. With Shakespeare’s stories offering a creative springboard, this showcase broke down barriers to the perceived idea of ‘who’ Shakespeare is for, championing inclusivity.
I'm Non-Typical, Typical
August 2019
A hard-hitting inclusive theatre piece exploring the stories of disabled people through the mediums of dance, monologue and visual imagery.
