Tim Bray Theatre Company to close after 33 years of accessible performances in New Zealand

Tim Bray Theatre Company will close at the end of this year after 33 years of providing accessible theatre for children in Aotearoa. Founded by Tim Bray in 1991, the company was a pioneer in offering NZSL interpreted performances and other accessibility initiatives. The company expanded its programs over the years, including touch tours and sensory relaxed performances. It also provided free tickets to children from underprivileged schools, ensuring that theatre was accessible to all. Tim Bray's commitment to inclusivity has left a lasting impact on young audiences and aspiring artists. Arts Access Aotearoa plans to continue building on the legacy of accessibility that Bray established.
