Event Description

Premiere Stages, the professional theatre in residence at Kean University, is excited to present our 2012 Play Festival winner. Set in 1968, Handicapped People in Their Formal Attire takes place at a black tie fundraiser for people with disabilities. The evening's honoree is Agnes Sheehan, a woman with cerebral palsy, who is escorted by her non-disabled sister, Theresa. The siblings make the most of the celebration until unforeseen events force them to examine how fragile the bond is between them. Infused with humor, this moving story explores the true meaning of sacrifice. The inclusive cast includes actors with and without disabilities and features Lori Hammel, David Harrell, John McGinty, Rachel Pickup, Roland Sands, and Ed Setrakian.

The production runs Thursdays - Sundays from July 12th to July 29th

I attended this event on a different evening and it was phenomenal. What a compelling, realistic portrayal of life with a disability.
