Troubadour’s Disability Awareness Concert is an event to help raise awareness for disability inclusion in the entertainment industry through live musical performance. Unfortunately accurate representation and disability inclusion are often neglected in film and television as well as on stage. This concert can hopefully bring additional awareness and opportunity for performers with disabilities. Tobias Forrest is a quadriplegic actor and singer who has been featured in the Oscar choir and stars in the much anticipated film “Daruma”. He is reuniting with his band Cityzen and bringing some amazing guest performers, including Ellis Hall Jr. “The Ambassador of Soul” and Elliot Yamin from American Idol. There are also additional surprise guests who will be lending their talent to create an incredible evening of entertainment. This event is not a fundraiser for any organizations however some great ones have become sponsors and purchased tickets for members of the disability community, making the show more affordable and accessible. Some wonderful supporters have also helped spread the word by sharing with their online and social communities. A complete list of sponsors, supporters and special guests will be available soon!
