I saw the most awesome play the DCPA's Space theater yesterday. In fact, that show is the reason I am still blogging now! My friend Chrissy offered to take me to see it. One of our former teachers from Platt was performing in it. It was a production of the musical The Wiz perfomed by a group called PHAMALy (Physically Handicapped Amateur Musical Actors League, Inc.). I believe everyone in the case has a disability of one sort or another. The lead of Dorothy was played by a blind woman and her seeing eye dog. The Tin Woman was in a wheelchair. Here's a video report from 9news about the play. My old instructor is the one that played The Wiz. I knew beforehand, but that man can sing! I was moved because here are people facing stuggles far greater than what I have to face and they're out there living and doing what they dream and I really have no excuse why I don't.
