Spectrum Theatre Ensemble
carterpm@missouri.edu or 573.819.6865
A groundbreaking theatre company presenting works that highlight the lives of individuals on the autism spectrum and related disorders, as well as the experiences of their families, friends, classmates, teachers, and co-workers.
We champion self-advocacy and promote autism-accessible theatre as both a therapeutic channel
and means of educational outreach to the community.
"Everyone is a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will spend its whole life believing it is stupid."
- Albert Einstein
