the days allottted to me travelled deep into the heart of disability culture and tackled the paradox that having a disability is often assumed to be gloomy - a misconception the company has worked hard to counter - and yet the sorrowful side of the culture is bordering on being taboo

The work looked at the idea that we are a product of past generations and at how we deal with what we inherit genetically and socially, and whether we choose to rebel against this, deny it or celebrate our individuality.

the days allotted to me was performed at the Space Theatre as part of the High Beam Festival in March 2000
