Taren Sterry's 180 Days Plays Stage Left Studio Tomorrow
On Tuesday, December 17, Taren Sterry will bring her acclaimed 180 Days show, the true story of her first six months working in hospice and what led to her career with VNSNY Hospice Care, to NYC. While attending the University of California at Santa Cruz, Taren embarked on a six-month ethnographic field study to work with terminally ill patients and their families. After 11 years of working in hospice, Taren launched her funny, dramatic and uplifting one-woman show that has been touring the country since 2008. The show infuses the difficult subject of death and dying with poignant humor by narrating through the eyes of Taren's most memorable hospice patients, and artistically explains why the idea that hospice is a depressing and taboo topic is an outdated myth. 180 Days is designed to speak to hospice workers, teaching them how embrace working in this unusual field, while helping spark much needed conversations among family and friends about end-of-life care.
