About Blue Apple

Blue Apple Theatre was founded by Jane Jessop with Tommy Jessop in 2005 because many people with learning disabilities said they were isolated and lonely with no opportunity to take part in the performing arts.

Right from the beginning, the aim was to be ambitious, lift the ceiling of expectation and change the way the public see people with any form of learning disability.

Blue Apple is now recognised as one of the foremost theatre companies in the UK for people with a learning disability, performing and touring drama, dance, film and song locally, nationally and even internationally with partners in the Czech Republic, Poland and Italy.

Blue Apple changes lives by providing empowering, enriching opportunities, with a sense of purpose and belonging, where friendships are forged and people discover their skills and grow in confidence.

They run on Saturday mornings during term time for young people 14-18 who have a learning disability as they currently have capacity for a few more participants.

Who? For 14-18 year olds with a learning disability.
When? During term-time weekly on Saturdays 11am-12pm.
Where? Online via Zoom.
Cost? Taster sessions are free. Then £7 per session payable termly/half-termly in advance.
