| Summary |
Anthony Lopez and Rachel Handler, two disabled actors (both amputees), intend to restart their careers after a long hiatus. Rachel was a promising young actress before surviving a car accident two years ago. Anthony was born with his physical disability and has been taking a break from acting due to a persistent lack of confidence. Both meet each other at the Nicu's Spoon Theater - a company whose mission is to provide opportunities to both disabled and non-disabled actors of various ages, gender, races and cultural backgrounds alike. Rachel, Anthony, and other cast members try to win recognition and, most importantly reaffirm beliefs in themselves. As the premiere of the play approaches and physical and self-esteem issues become an obstacle, will they make it to the final performance? |
