“A New Kind of Listening” Strongly Recommended in Library Journal
Library Journal, August 2011. Video review of A New Kind of Listening
Theater director Richard Reho and his Community Inclusive Theater Group of actors/dancers working in North Carolina certainly have learned how to listen to people with disabilities. Group member Chris, a 20-year-old man with cerebral palsy once labeled retarded, expresses himself with the aid of a Facilitated Communication Lightwriter. His thoughts and reactions are central to the troupe’s production of The Song That Greens the Earth, an amalgam of not only Chris’s work but also the poetry of Eve Hanf-Enos, who is autistic, the dance movements of Laura Spray, who also is autistic, and the poetry of Megan Jones, who is learning disabled. This beautifully successful plea for the inclusive arts movement is strongly recommended for collections serving special populations and those in the arts. Difficult to forget, it should offer inspiration for parents and teachers of special needs children.

“A New Kind of Listening” Screens at Arizona TASH Conference
Margaret Heath attended a June 2011 screening of A New Kind of Listening at the 7th Annual Arizona Inclusive Schools Conference in Phoenix. 
The conference was organized by Arizona Wins With Inclusive Schools, a special project of Arizona TASH. The conference was well attended by educators, parents and self-advocates and included several keynotes and break-out sessions led by participants speaking “from the inside out” – a phrase Laura Nagle used in describing her journey with autism. The film was warmly received and inspired several people to think of how they might pursue inclusive arts projects of their own.
Thanks to conference organizers Sherry Mulholland, Andrea O’Brien and Susan Black for inviting us to share our film.
