RARE: Stories of Dis-ease is being performed to help bring a greater awareness and deeper understanding of the medical, economic, psychological, and social challenges facing people with rare diseases.
Act 2 will be an interactive discussion with medical professionals and people who have been affected by a rare disease giving a short presentation and answering questions from the audience.
Kevin Kling, best known for his popular commentaries on National Public Radio’s All Things Considered, has adapted the Greek story Philoctetes to tell this story. Kling shared, “This production has truly been a passion project for all of us and has been woven from the accounts of so many courageous individuals who have lived the experience of rare disease and who have personally shared their stories with us.”
Luverne Seifert, Head of BA Theater Performance at the University of Minnesota is the director of the play, along with dramaturg and University of Minnesota theater professor, Sonja Kuftinec.
