MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Milwaukee's "Pink Umbrella Theater" is the only professional theater company in Milwaukee working directly with disabled actors and artists. There are only a handful of companies like it across the country too. It's been around since 2018 and is for anyone, especially for the adult crowd. This non-profit is at a critical point right now looking for a permanent home. It's also launched a nationwide initiative called a Disability Theater Cohort, bringing actors, writers, and composers to create best practices and write shows for specific kind of actors to perform.
Click here if you're interested in taking classes, workshops, or perhaps one of the few performances they put on every year.
