Join Chris & Paris every other Tuesday to discover if you really can judge a book by its hideous cover, bad title, or weird synopsis.
Episode 58 - All in a Row by Alex Oates *Special Guest Adam K*
After seeing #puppetgate trending on Twitter, Chris and Paris dive into the script of the play All in a Row with our friend Adam.
Adam is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst with a MA in Applied Behavior Analysis and a decade of experience working with children with autism in residential and classroom settings.
In addition to our usual barnyard language, this episode's content warnings include: ableism, descriptions of autism in the play, pornography, sexual assault, urination/defecation, and violence.
Better written reviews of the play/script by other folks, including folks with autism/autistic folks:
- C.L. Lynch on Puppetgate
- All in a Row is Ableist: Also includes images of the original puppet design, final puppet design, and other pictures of the play's set and performance.
