“The disability ‘Taskmaster’!” A hilarious rip-roaring game show with humour
for all ages, where kids join in the games and learn about disability!
Two teams of three, a mix of disabled and non-disabled comedians attempt tasks
set for them by their host Benny Shakes, raising awareness of disabilities
such as Cerebral Palsy and Autism.
The teams get to experience how it feels to have a disability by playing interactive games such as ’The Blue Badge Bunch’, where team members (and audiences)
draw with their feet, ‘Jamie’s Gamey’, working out sentences from a speaking
aid, and ‘The Price is Wrong’ where the teams guess the price and purpose of
disability aids, including specially designed gaming controllers.
With plenty of prizes for the audience too..! Most accurate guesses from the
panel and the audience are rewarded, with scoring kept by our tech whizz, as
well as judging from Benny himself.
The Show is presented by Benny Shakes, a comedian with Cerebral Palsy, who devised the tasks to represent the challenges disabled people face on a daily
basis, and give a glimpse into disabled culture and humour.
