Declaration

A curious, colourful and candid exploration of ADHD, mental health and diagnosis. Instinctive, curious, bold and bouncy; Sarah is a mighty proud square peg, which wouldn’t be such a problem if the hole wasn’t so damn round. Sarah grew up feeling different. Her childhood Doctor thought it was sugar. Her current Doctor thinks its ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder). Sarah still feels different, so what will a label do? Will it change the way you see her and the way she sees herself? Developed in consultation with medical professionals, ADHD and mental health support groups, ‘Declaration’ examines when we want, need or are forced to declare our differences, and the faces we wear to fit in. With autobiographical material, comedy, storytelling, and conversations with audiences, Declaration’ takes you on vibrant and daring adventure that asks you to roll around in your weirdness, make a hat out of it and dance.
