This paper describes an action research project in which the Lawnmowers Theatre Company for people with learning disabilities mounted drama clubs and a series of night clubs. The objective of the project was to demonstrate that initiatives involving drama offer important opportunities for adult education and that night clubs for people with learning disabilities can be effective in providing new opportunities for social contact and also recognition for disability arts.
