MONTREAL FRINGE FESTIVAL PLAY

Based on True Feelings


What happens when no one understands you? When the system fails you? When you find yourself medicated, incarcerated and looking at society from the outside? Jesse Heffring has been working with at-risk youth whose lives have been deeply affected by their disorders, and perhaps more affected by the treatments for those disorders. But their strength and resilience is inspiring, and has led to the collaborative creation of an original two act play.
