A neuro-inclusive Theatre Company

About the Company: EPIC Players (Empower, Perform, Include, Create), founded on August 25, 2016, is a nonprofit, neuro-diverse theatre company dedicated to creating professional performing arts opportunities and supportive social communities in the arts for Neurodivergent and Disabled artists. Via inclusive mainstage productions, musical cabarets, original showcases, skills-based classes and career resources, we hope to increase critical employment opportunities, pioneer increased inclusion in the arts, and break down social stigmas surrounding neuro-diverse communities. EPIC trains on greater inclusion in the theatre and the workplace and has spoken at The United Nations, rang the opening bell at the NYSE, and April 2nd was declared "EPIC Players Day" by Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine.

“I have such positive experiences at the EPIC shows that it is hard for me to put into words how much I love them! First, everything is done on a top notch level. The enthusiasm of the actors is inspiring. They deliver their performances with such dedication!
