About the Show — Faye’s Room 

Faye’s Room by Alex K. Masse is the story of Faye Murphy, an autistic lesbian who works at a queer cafe… and happens to have the power to summon and hide in a magical sensory room at will. When she becomes trapped in this room with her least favourite co-worker, son of the founder and token heterosexual Chase McLure, an unlikely bond forms, and the two find themselves with a bit more in common than they’d thought. Faye’s Room is a moving exploration of neurodivergent solidarity, intergenerational bonds, and internalized ableism. 

The cast and crew include neurodivergent and disabled artists, centring lived experience in every part of the process.
