Sharing experiences and gaining understanding using theater with empathy.
Stories of Neurodivergence with True Story Theater
Thursday, May 2, 7-8:30 pm ET at Park Ave. Congregational Church, 1st floor Fellowship Room, 50 Paul Revere Rd (corner of Park Ave), Arlington MA
Neurodiversity is a framework for understanding human brain function and mental illness. Within our unique selves, how do we face our limitations and discover new strengths? When we experience someone’s reaction to neurodiversity, how do we handle painful ignorance (including our own) …or welcome kindness? Let’s learn from each other’s stories.
Come to share your thoughts, feelings and experiences around neurodivergence, or just come to watch. Laugh, cry, and gain new insights and connections as True Story’s actors and musicians empathetically embody the heart of what is shared.
Suggested donation $15. All are welcome. No one turned away for lack of money.
