Product Description

No Labels Monday to Friday

There is no such thing as challenging behaviour, only creative behaviour.

Five dramatic episodes tell the story of the fictional No Labels Drama Group. Meet the cast and share in their journey, as they dispense with the Learning Disability label and teach us through drama and comedy that labels are for tins not for people. These stories are poignant, funny and based on real experience. An insight into the world of marginalised people and a tribute to their strength and humour.


For Learning Disability Week 2012 a free episode is offered each day. Collect the full set.
Monday – Are you sitting comfortably?
Tuesday – The play’s the thing.
Wednesday – Politics is rubbish.
Thursday – Fairy cakes or cup cakes?
Friday – The Recycled Musical

5.0 out of 5 stars Beginning a conversation 24 Jun 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
No labels on monday introduces us to the members of the no labels drama group - briefly, respectfully and with affection. There is no need for more than a couple of sentences about each person as they soon begin to speak for themselves. And that includes even the members of the group who find speech particularly difficult. The writer guys herself slightly as the earnest narrator and facilitator, Kate, anxiously trying to arrive at some sort of definition of learning difficulty. Most of the time the group members remain silent as she flounders along, mentally castigating herself for inadvertant moments of possible insensitivity. But finally, rather brilliantly, she achieves an idea that the difference between those labelled with 'learning difficulty' and those called 'normal' is a 'conversational impairment betweenboth parties. This is perhaps the most useful understanding of learning difficulty (which also includes dementia) that i have ever come across. I look forward to the next in this week long series.

These are 5 episodes chronicling the work of a fictional drama group (called No Labels) which are based on real work done by the author in collaboration with a beguiling, attractive, varied bunch of people tagged with the label 'learning disability'. It's a great read - funny, entertaining, but also thought-provoking in the best sense of the word. With each wee adventure, it gently challenges your perceptions of people, labels, and the values on which our society SEEMS TO run. I've just finished reading it and the characters are all still vivid for me. I know they'll stay that way for a long time, too.
