Sydney Zarlengo | Crafting Curious | Full Documentary [CC] @disabled.autistic.lesbian | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
The story of the world's first all-neurodivergent cast & crew production of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, what we learned, and how it ended (three days before opening night)
We finally received the official investigation report from the college administration on April 4, 2024. Watch the one year later epilogue to this documentary here - youtu.be/DDGqDgqYhCo
“It is there to be done, so I do it” - Frances Perkins, Mount Holyoke Class of 1902
Please note - this documentary is not made in any affiliation with the college or its beliefs, nor is it meant to point blame in any direction. We as a team just happened to catch everything on camera and figured there was some stuff the world might be able to learn from it.
