[Image Description: The Waiting in the Wings No More graphic, featuring an image of five dancers (Rob Chartier, Moni Hoffman, Siôned Watkins, Amelia Rose Griffin, and Liz Winkelaar) performing in 'Living the u̶n̶Desirable Life'. Three dancers are standing and two dancers are seated in wheelchairs. They wear light blue tops with red and blue patterned accents and black bottoms. The two wheelchair dancers, who are at the front left and back right, are leaning forward. The dancer in the centre is leaning forward to their left, holding the hand of the wheelchair dancer at the front left. Another dancer stands behind the dancer in the centre, with one of their hands on the face of the dancer in front of them. The dancer at the back left has one hand on a wheelchair handle, and their other hand on the back of the dancer in the centre back. The stage is quite dim with blue lighting. There are shadows of the two wheelchair dancers on the stage to their right. At the top left corner are The Disability Collective, Propeller Dance, and Fall for Dance logos in white. At the top right corner are the words “Waiting in the Wings No More”, “October 4-6, 2024”, and “Betty Oliphant Theatre” in white font. At the bottom left corners are the ASL interpretation and audio description symbols in white]
