Chicago Children’s Theatre’s Red Kite Project was founded in 2006 by Jacqueline Russell to create multisensory, immersive live theater experiences for children on the autism spectrum. In 2012 Northwestern University’s Seesaw Theatre was founded under the name "Theatre Stands with Autism" by Melanie Gertzman and Anna Marr. In this workshop, the founders of both programs will reflect on the past, present and future of sensory theater making.
