Description
The Changeling Girl explores experiences of neurodivergency through the captivating story of Agnes, an autistic girl living in medieval England accused of being a fairy changeling. Told through a spellbinding combination of theatre, poetry, movement and music – we will take you on an inspiring journey into a fairy tale landscape which celebrates the beauty of our (neuro)differences, as well as the struggle of living in a world not designed for neurodivergent people. This piece has been created by our neurodivergent company as a love letter to the community, to be enjoyed by anyone and everyone!Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
