Where Special Happens
About Famous PEOPLE Players
Founded in 1974, FPP were the Pioneers who first brought Integration to the forefront of the world for people with disABILITIES.
Our founder Diane Dupuy volunteered at the Orillia Institution, and was horrified how inhumanly people were segregated and hidden from society. She believed in the principle of ‘Normalization” This is why she founded FPP, using the blacklight technique where people are dressed – head to toe in black so they were not seen. When the audience found out who the people were, they stood on their feet and applauded. They said
“BRAVO” They didn’t know that these people were capable of many wonderful things.
Famous PEOPLE Players were discovered by Liberace.
“It is not who you are that I want you to perform in “Vegas”, It is because you are SO GOOD. You deserve to share the stage with me.”
