Do you like performing?

The summer issue of the NAS magazine, Communication (available to all NAS members), will feature people with autism who perform.
 
If you're a person with autism and like to sing, act,dance, play an instrument or perform in other ways then we'd love to hear from you. And If you support a person with autism who performs then it'd also be good to hear from you
 
Just let us know about it in this discussion and we'll get in touch by email to your registered address if we'd like to chat about featuring you in the magazine.

  • I love performing. I particularly enjoy giving presentations to social workers and other professionals about asperger's syndrome and living with it. I have given two of these presentations so far, for my local autism charity, and I should hopefully be giving another presentation soon for a disability charity. I do not feel afraid at all when I am on stage. Stage-fright is an alien concept for me. Being on stage helps me to feel less anxious because it takes my mind off things. I have to focus on my script, and it makes me feel as though I have a purpose.
