Kaleidoscope Festival (Monday 30 September – Sunday 6 October) is a festival celebrating diversity, inclusion and unique abilities.
“Kaleidoscope came about because when Storyhouse opened,(artistic director Alex) asked me what I’d really like to do, and I wanted to run a disability festival. I talked to over 23 different charities, groups and day care centres and said: ‘What do you want? What do your beneficiaries want?'”
