Hands Up! Don’t Go There brings together seasoned performers with and without disabilities to share profound and deeply moving personal stories. The performance explores topics people often avoid—experiences that are difficult, uncomfortable, or rarely discussed, yet essential to name and confront. Through Tellin’ Tales’ unique platform, artists from diverse backgrounds engage in writing, story development, and live performance to illuminate these often-silenced narratives.
The evening will also feature live music by Elisabeth Johnson, a Brazilian-American violinist, musician, and artist based in Chicago. Drawing on her lived experience as a disabled artist, Johnson weaves together an evocative musical presence that expands the emotional landscape of the stories onstage.
General admission: $20/ People with disabilities: $15
