Abstract

This study analyzes the creative process behind the play Mig Meg Mug based on a perspective of cultural accessibility and inclusive costume design. Directed by Maria Alice Possani with costumes by Anna Kühl, the production integrates accessibility elements such as audio description embedded in the dramaturgy and the creation of tactile costumes in line with the concepts of the show. During the pandemic, its collaborative creative process adapted itself to restrictions by using remote tools to ensure smooth communication and costume development. This study highlights how accessibility can be integrated as an innovative artistic language, transforming theater into a shared experience for all audiences.
