Vital Xposure

Vital Xposure is a disabled-led touring theatre company that promotes hidden voices with extraordinary stories to tell. Led by award-winning neurodivergent director and producer, Stephen Bailey, the company centres narrative which you will not find on other stages, looking to people’s stories which are not otherwise given air and space. OUR VISION: a fairer world for marginalised artists to become creative leaders, with their work celebrated in the heart of our culture. We offer multi layered theatre productions ensuring quality work experiences for talented disabled artists. Our theatre productions lift the lid on vital social issues, raising awareness and uncovering new voices in the arts. We are committed to ensuring a safe, inclusive and collaborative environment in all our productions, where artists feel supported through their own professional and creative journey with us: “I love working with Vital Xposure. I feel valued and respected. The work is ground-breaking, inspiring, political and creative. It is rare for me to work in an environment in which I feel so safe, where there is an awareness of discrimination and a commitment to working inclusively." – Deni Francis, Actor Founded in 2011 by Julie McNamara, a renowned director, writer and disability rights activist, we became an Arts Council England’s National Portfolio Organisation in 2012 and continue to be in the portfolio for the 2023-2027 period.
