• "Bree Hadley (2017) Disability, Sustainability, Austerity: The Bolshy Divas Arts-Based Protests Against Policy Paradoxes. Centre for Sustainable Practice in the Arts Journal 18 Spring. http://www.sustainablepractice.org."
  "In this short article, I want consider some of the ways theatrical artists, activists and advocates in Australia are tackling the paradoxical relationship between sustainability and austerity discourses, and, as a result, some changes this may be starting to produce in disabled people’s aesthetic prerogatives. For the last 30 years, artists, activists and scholars in Australia and beyond have avoided casting disability in terms of trauma, crisis, catastrophe and disaster. Accounts of the way disability theatre challenges stereotypes , as well as analysis of disability signifiers in screen, stage, and social performance , have expressed concern about deploying disability as a metaphor for disaster, or defining disabled people as monstrous, tragic, stoic, or inspirational, the way the medical model of disability traditionally defines us. Instead, modern disabled artists and the scholars who analyse them have advocated for work that deploys live art, performance art, and performative intervention in public space to challenge stereotypes, oppressive institutional systems, and other factors the social model of disability sees as the cause of disability oppression .In the last few years, though, there has been an increase in work that does associate disability with trauma, tragedy and disaster, in what seems to be a response to austerity, accountability and economic sustainability agendas that call for cuts to disability services spending to make our societies more sustainable going forward."

• "Tutti Arts - Kathryn Evans - Frozen Girl - Promotional Flyer"
  Tutti Arts - Kathryn Evans 'Frozen Girl' 2017 Promotional Flyer - reads, in part "DREAMBIG CHILDREN'S FESTIVAL AND TUTTI ARTS PRESENTS FROZEN GIRL All of us remember that time in early adolescence when having a best friend is everything. Similarly, every parent knows that one day the little child they are dose to will grow and begin to separate from them. But what happens when a child separates so completely that even when with you they are unable to communicate or move. Frozen Girl is Kathryn Evans story, first told in 2014 during storytelling workshops, when she revealed that between the ages of 11 and 13 she did not speak or move. Kathryn's story and the way she told it with her small intricate facial expressions and her unhurried physicality was so powerful that I and members of the ensemble wanted to explore it further with her."

  Tutti Ensemble Holdfast Choir History, Goals, Friends & Supporters 2002 - reads, in part " The development of the Tutti Ensemble's Holdfast Community Choir seems like magic. It has grown in less than four years from a small group of 11 intellectually disabled people and two support workers at Minda enjoying choral singing as a recreational option, to a diverse group of 60 - 70 singers and musicians. The philosophy of the choir is that there are no barriers to participation, therefore people with physical and intellectual disabilities and members of the community from widely differing age groups and musical experience are accepted and encouraged. Our repertoire has evolved to include gospel, popular and traditional songs as well as old favourites. We also sing songs from other cultures and original songs by contemporary writers"
