Starting at 2 PM on Saturday, August 8th at Tarragon Theatre, attendees can enjoy a series of film screenings provided by Voices with Impact, with stories from disabled creators from across the country. Our second event of the evening is a fan-favourite disabled drag and burlesque celebration: CRIPtonite! Starting at 8 PM, you can catch a series of boundary defying performances, all situated in an accessible and relaxed environment. Film screenings and CRIPtonite are both ticketed in a Pay-What-You-Can format. Visit HERE for tickets and more information.
