Our Mission
Detour Company Theatre provides theatre training and performance experiences for adults with intellectual, developmental and physical disabilities, giving them authentic opportunities to develop artistry, demonstrate courage and collaboration, experience joy and participate in the sharing of musical theatre with the entire community.
These adults may have disabilities including (but not limited to) autism, cognitive and physical challenges, deafness and blindness, which require additional support and adaptive techniques. We work to create rewarding programming that supports existing skills and celebrates the development of new ones.
We also serve as a resource to the community both to support those who want to work in the field of arts and disability, and to those who are eager to celebrate the talent creativity and artistic potential of all people.
“Detour is a place where we can participate freely and fully as artists.”
