The Blue Goldfish is an issue play which deals with hidden disability, bullying and the importance of inclusion - recognising that everyone is different, we're just different in different ways. 

The play focuses on Mark, a young boy with a range of hidden disabilities which makes him difficult to teach and difficult to be with. To make matters worse, Mark is being picked on by Darren who has to face the consequences of his own behaviour.

Although not central to the play, Mark's unseen disabilities range from autism, ADHD to poor sight and hearing impairment - anything which marks him out as being different. Focusing on bullying, the play has more to say about being ignored and left out - often a more serious consequence of a hidden disability.
