Interactive workshop, with performances by Robb Leigh Davis.
Written and directed by Stephen Hart This one-man dramatic monologue is a testimony to human resilience in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. The piece considers multiple themes, including child abuse, domestic violence, homelessness, gay identity, surviving rape, and learning to live with HIV.
