The Tempest was adapted to a digital format in response to the Covid-19 pandemic People’s Palace Projects, in partnership with Flute Theatre (UK) and La Plaza Theatre (Peru), developed the production during a four-week digital theatre laboratory connecting the UK and Peru. The one-hour online performance, available in Spanish with English translation, investigated how the dramatic arts can break the stigma and lack of visibility around autism and demonstrates how taking part in theatrical productions can enable resilience among young people with autism. Adapting to Covid The show was adapted to a digital format in response to the Covid-19 pandemic using Flute’s Kelly Hunter Heartbeat Method. The UK theatre company has been developing a series of sensory drama games based on Shakespearean rhythms and language for 20 years and in the Covid-19 pandemic has introduced innovative ways of working online with people with autism.
