In response to the current COVID-19 crisis, where many autistic people are experiencing increased isolation, performances of Pericles will be made by the company via Zoom to individual households for those with autism and their families. Neurotypical siblings and all family members are welcome to join in.
Created in 2019, Pericles was scheduled to perform in UK theatres during 2020.
