Phamaly Theatre Company History
Phamaly Theatre Company was founded in 1989 in Denver, Colorado, with the mission to create theater that is produced by and for people with disabilities. The founding members were passionate about showcasing the talents of artists with disabilities and providing them with opportunities in the performing arts that were often denied by traditional theater companies. The name 'Phamaly' is a combination of 'physically' and 'disabled', reflecting the organization's commitment to inclusivity. The company began with small productions, gradually gaining recognition for its unique approach to storytelling that highlighted the experiences and challenges of individuals with disabilities. Over the years, Phamaly has produced numerous plays and musicals, often reimagining classic works to make them accessible to performers of varying abilities. Their productions are known for their high artistic quality, innovative staging, and commitment to authentic representation. One of their landmark moments was in 1997 when they staged a full production of 'The King and I', which was groundbreaking for its time and set a precedent for inclusive theater. Phamaly has continued to evolve, collaborating with established playwrights and artists to develop original works that speak to the disability experience, making their mark not only in the local Denver community but also on national theater scenes. The company has garnered numerous awards and accolades, solidifying its reputation as a leader in inclusive performance arts.
