FBP_Shes Crazy logoSHE’S CRAZY (MENTAL HEALTH AND OTHER MYTHS)
Presented by Feisty Broads Productions
Jan. 8-9
Newport

Written by and featuring Cathy Springfield & Sherry McCamley

SHE’S CRAZY is a cabaret format that uses original songs and personal stories with the goal of reducing the stigma of Mental Health. The subtitle, “Mental Health and Other Myths” speaks to the idea that we all have some sort of mental health issue throughout our lifetime. One in four people in the U.S. (62 million people) has a diagnosable mental illness and the other three know someone, either a family member, a co worker, or friend, that has a mental illness; we’re all in it together! Mental Health is a combination of support and treatment. Feisty Broads Productions aims to support open discussion and decrease the fear of talking about mental illness.

A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE
Wright State University
Jan. 28-Feb. 7

The story famously recounts how the faded and promiscuous Blanche DuBois is pushed over the edge by her sexy and brutal brother-in-law, Stanley Kowalski. Streetcar launched the careers of Marlon Brando, Jessica Tandy, Kim Hunter and Karl Malden, and solidified the position of Tennessee Williams as one of the most important young playwrights of his generation. Fasten your seat belts!
