The nonprofit organization TDF has announced its 12th season of autism-friendly performances (AFP) for individuals and the families of those with autism and cognitive disabilities. Included in the season, to date, are Broadway’s “The Lion King,” “MJ” and “Aladdin.”

The 2023-2024 season will kick off on Oct. 1 with Disney’s “The Lion King” at the Minskoff Theatre. “MJ” will offer its first-ever AFP on March 10, 2024, at the Neil Simon Theatre. And Disney’s “Aladdin” will conclude the season on May 5, at the New Amsterdam Theatre.

On a related note, the new non-profit, Autistic Theatermakers Alliance, announces three new education grants supporting youth, teen, and young adult theatremakers. The grants are for $3,000, $5,000 and $7,000 respectively. Applications for the first round of grants will be open until March 1, 2024, at 11:59 PM EST, and recipients will be notified by March 15, 2024.
