Autism Got Talent is now on its 8th year.
Autism’s Got Talent’s founder, Anna Kennedy OBE shares: ‘It is all too often said that people with disabilities are not capable of very much, and they are unable to rise to the challenges that they are faced with. That’s not true.
‘Autism’s Got Talent now on its 8th year is a platform given to talented individuals with autism enabling them to show off their skills and talents. We not only have soloists, but people also perform in groups, which is something many people are quick to judge as impossible for those on the spectrum. This show has been a platform for many of our performers to go on to be part of other shows, go on to achieve scholarships create charity singles, albums and do much more.
‘Not only are these talented, amazing individuals proving their critics wrong, they are also having fun and achieving so much.’
Joining Anna Kennedy OBE to help present performers will be Main Compere Phil Barnet , Maggie Paterson , Dr Pam Spurr, Richard Mylan Steven Smith and more celebrities in the pipeline.
Tickets are available for the show on May 4th at Mermaid Theatre in London.
