Blue Apple Theatre
Blue Apple Theatre is an award-winning inclusive theatre company based in Winchester, England. It was founded in 2005 by Jane Jessop to pioneer the inclusion of actors with intellectual disabilities on mainstream stages. In May 2012, six Blue Apple actors made history by touring a ground-breaking re-imagining of William Shakespeare's Hamlet around the South of England. They were the first actors with Down Syndrome to perform the play professionally.
In June 2012, Blue Apple Theatre was named as the 1000th winner of the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service〔(Volunteers honoured in Queen's Award for Voluntary Service : Directgov - Newsroom )〕 in recognition of the great efforts of its voluntary staff.
==History==
Blue Apple Theatre was founded in 2005 by Jane Jessop as an activity for the users of Winchester & District Mencap. About 20 actors with learning disabilities met every Monday evening at the Tower Arts Centre to learn about story and performance. The company's first show was a basic Variety show called "New Beginnings". It was such a success that the company put on a second show, "Born to Be Blue" that Christmas, and has created two full-scale productions a year ever since. The company now has over 60 members including actors, volunteers and freelance creatives. Jane Jessop is the Founding Director, and Louise Sarton is the Administrator.
Since Autumn 2009, Blue Apple's Artistic Director has been Peter Clerke, who has worked with the playwright William Jessop to create various productions including promenade performances of A Midsummer Night's Dream to mark Blue Apple's fifth anniversary in June 2010, an original play called "Captain Miserable and the Book Guardian" for Christmas 2010, a lively comic adaptation of Gogol's The Government Inspector for Summer 2011, and a touring version of Hamlet for 2012.
