  • About Us

    A.B.L.E. – Artists Breaking Limits & Expectations is a Chicago based non-profit that creates theatre and film projects for, with, and by individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Through our core ensemble program, specialized workshops, and outreach efforts, A.B.L.E. creates platforms for individuals with disabilities to share who they are and all that they are A.B.L.E. to do. Whether in person or online, all programs strive to foster independence, deepen social skills, and celebrate creativity. By promoting practices that place participants with disabilities in the spotlight, A.B.L.E. strives to shift societal preconceptions about disability, and build more inclusive, empathetic communities. You can see some of our past shows, read about our rehearsal process, meet our current team, and learn more about all of our programs online at ableensemble.com
