Butterflies are free

by Leonard Gershe, directed by Joey Rizzolo

This production of Leonard Gershe’s comedy takes place in a world unique to America in general and to New York in particular, where human beings contain contradictory impulses: to live-and-let-live, and to make everyone else’s business your own. Between those impulses is a story that is at the heart of every disability: navigating the unknown in search of independence.
