History

Joseph Papp Public Theater/Susan Stein Shiva Theater

425 Lafayette Street New York, NY 10023

Acclaimed writer and performer Ryan J. Haddad makes his off-Broadway playwriting debut with the hilarious and audacious DARK DISABLED STORIES. Haddad’s newest autobiographical play is a series of unforgiving vignettes about the strangers he encounters while navigating a city (and a world) not built for his walker and cerebral palsy. Directed by Jordan Fein, DARK DISABLED STORIES probes implicit ableism and the assumptions we make about people we'll never really know. This production will feature American Sign Language, open captions, and audio description integrated into every performance.
