Uplift Performing Arts will stage 'Our Spectrum Story' at The Courtyard Theatre on 12 and 13 March 2026, with shows starting at 7.30pm each evening. The events suit all ages and welcome the public. Organisers shifted the performances from the McNeill Theatre in the Mid and East Antrim Borough area.

The show draws on input from autistic participants to present their experiences via acting, dance and other arts. It covers aspects of everyday routines, personal identity and community ties, along with views on neurodiversity.

Director Ryan Moffett stated the work aims to let autistic individuals share their accounts directly, in hopes of building audience insight and rapport. Supporters include Clanmil Housing, Mid and East Antrim Borough Council and the Northern Trust.

Clanmil Housing's Austin Kelly noted the emphasis on personal accounts, arts and belonging. Mayor Jackson Minford of Mid and East Antrim described the effort as advancing local arts and knowledge of autism. Northern Trust's Jayne Colville welcomed the chance for autistic locals to display skills through performance. Neve Hutchinson handles music and sound. Tickets appear on The Courtyard Theatre site.
