Thanks to the NADC, I am now defined as an artist for what I can do rather than what I cannot.
Creating this new portfolio of work has been very rewarding as I have obtained sales and inspired patrons. I could not have done this without the Arts and Accessibility Program.
The NADC provided funding to supports costs for a captioned performance of Spring Awakening, which featured 10 deaf actors. Cast member Ali Stroker made history as the first ever actor in a wheelchair to perform on Broadway.
