Christina has Downs Syndrome and Jeff has autism - this is their love story
Intimate relationships between people with disabilities are rarely depicted on stage or screen. What is left behind in that gaping chasm are thousands of lives, each with stories of their own, about how love has touched and shaped them.
“It’s about people with learning disabilities, their love for one another, and their respect for one another.” “We made them stick to the rules, and as a result their love for each other has just flourished,” Christina’s sister Frederica said. Christina and Jeff have been working on the show since November 2021, with the help of Emily Potter from Down the Lens and a crowdfunding campaign. They say they’re “excited” to finally show audiences what they’ve been up to.
“We still get comments now,” Frederica said. “It has improved but we still get comments. It shouldn’t happen really.”
