Welcome to DaDaFest 2006 Now in its sixth year, DaDaFest is the largest celebration of Disability and Deaf art in the UK, bringing together internationally-acclaimed professional artists, local home-grown talent, and up and coming young artists. In 2005 DaDaFest achieved the Mersey Tourism Award for Best Small Event 2005. This year’s exciting program reflects Liverpool’s theme for 2006, ‘Liverpool Performs’. As in previous years we will be showcasing ground-breaking Deaf and disability arts; attracting national media attention and international performers. For the first time we will be using venues in the Manchester area partnering with Manchester Arts organisations as well as Liverpool ones, and see this as key in raising the profile of Disability Arts regionally, nationally and internationally. We would like to thank our funders Arts Council England, Liverpool Culture Company, and all the venues, sponsors and partners Ruth Gould, NWDAF Director I am so excited with this year’s program, there’s plenty of fantastic new acts and the festival has really grown. I hope you enjoy the varied and diverse line up. Gemma Nash, Festival Organiser 1

Friday 17 November The Arts Centre, 8pm Tickets £8 / £6 Concession
In conjunction with the Comedy Store’s regular fortnightly New Stuff night, DaDaFest presents new material from some of the most talented disabled comedians around. These wickedly wonderful acts will be hilarious, raw and raunchy, guaranteed to make you fall about in fits.
Laurence was on Jim’ll Fix It in 1990. He’s still getting over it! Described as a ‘sit-down comedian’ by un-PC Cherie Blair, disabled comedian Laurence Clark’s new show tells a story of love, obsession and a certain badge! With the spectre of Jim’ll Fix It still haunting his dreams, he tackles such diverse subjects as the questionable miraculous effects of Lourdes, using urinals when in a wheelchair, and the biggest challenge for any man – becoming a father. Maybe wish fulfilment isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
