TampaRep will “Raise the Curtain on Mental Health Awareness” by presenting a suite of artistic programming and collaborative community engagement events.
Events include:
• the Pulitzer prize-winning and Tony Award-winning musical exploring bipolar disorder, NEXT TO NORMAL.
• IN MY OWN LITTLE CORNER, a one woman autobiographical musical production written and performed by Broadway actor/dancer Chryssie Whitehead-Disbrow.
• Complementary student workshops – “Care Boxes” – to help share ways to stop the stigma and normalize the conversation around mental illness.
TampaRep is proud also be working with a Behavioral Health Consultant (BHC) who will join the rehearsal process for NEXT TO NORMAL to provide education, facilitate discussion and offer self-care skills to artists and technicians. In addition, TampaRep, in partnership with Love IV Lawrence, has committed to Mental Health First Aid Training.
