He is wearing a pink feather boa and heart shaped pink sunglasses. The stage has three pink spotlights which cast a neon pink hue over the actors.

Life of I

Date
Wed 18 Jun 2025

What happens when you give 10 actors with learning disabilities the creative freedom to tell the world exactly what life is like for them? Life of I happens.

Life of I is a production which shows difference in the way that Beans in Education would like you to see it. The show consists of ten scenes, each one exploring the actors' personal experiences and perspectives, with the aim of challenging stigmas and assumptions often placed upon them. This is a show rich in representation, giving voice to those who deserve to be heard in their own words and on their own terms. Our actors are eager to share their stories and perspectives, and we believe this project has the potential to foster greater understanding in the community.
A man is reaching his hand out with a smile on his face to a lady who looks slightly annoyed. The background states
A woman sat with a dramatic expression on her face. She is mid rant, and has a shocked and disgruntled look on her face. She is holding a fan in one hand and wafting it. She has a brown bob hair cut and is wearing a blue silk kimono-type dressing gown with floral designs.
A group of people stand around a man who is sat at a table centre stage and is wearing headphones. Everyone looks sad or concerned and they are staring at the man in the middle. The man has a stressed expression on his face. The group are all wearing band t-shirts and there is an image of a tape recorded projected behind them.
