VI TAP Training
Visual impairment awareness training for theatre practitioners
As part of Pathways, Extant runs a two session training programme that aims to support a wide range of theatre practitioners with the understanding, skills and confidence to plan and deliver workshops, classes and rehearsal room activity to assist the inclusion of visually impaired participants.

VI-TAP has been delivered to:
The Watermill Theatre, Camden People’s Theatre, London improv. groups, Guildhall School of Speech and Drama, Theatr Clywd, Commonwealth Theatre, The Actors Centre, Royal Central School of Speech and Drama and Young Vic.
