On November 8th, A Place to Be came to NOVA Loudoun to present Behind The Label. This powerful show reminded us to look inside people and ourselves, and realize that we are more than just labels.
A Place to Be, a performance-based music and drama therapy program in Virginia, describes their show Behind the Label:
"40 powerful minutes filled with monologues and music that explain what it’s like to live with various challenges including Autism, Down Syndrome, ADD, Anxiety, Cerebral Palsy, Depression, Traumatic Brain Injuries, Heart conditions, Dyslexia, and many other medical and life challenges. Written by the brave young people who struggle and triumph over their challenges every day, the goal of the project is to help teach people to see beyond diagnosis, beyond labels, and into human beings. "
