Rugby Borough Council

Tappin' In is working with Tea Leaf Tales, a drama group for young adults with learning disabilities based in Rugby, who provide opportunities for members to socialise and perform within the community. When they were approached by Tappin In’, their members were keen to accept the challenge, even though only one member had done anything like it before. In their own works, "It certainly is a challenge! Many of us are struggling with our hands doing one thing and our feet another. Luckily Jess, our dance instructor, keeps us going and makes it fun. She has been great and is playing to our strengths by including a drama sketch into our routine. Wait and see - we might surprise you, and ourselves"!
