New Play: 1971-2-3, The Story of James
A green poster with black text giving the below information.
True Ability, with support from Rumpus, proudly presents 1971-2-3 The Story of James.
“James” is the autobiographical story of a man with Cerebral Palsy, a talent for mathematics, and an active imagination. These gifts see him through the hardest of times and leave him with an incredible story of survival.
The original concept comes from Bruce Rossler and I feel very honoured that he has trusted us with his story. I have never cried and laughed so much in one day.
The cast (Bruce, Chrissie, and Patrick) is formidable together. It is a pleasure to watch their trust and creativity grow.
“James” is still on his journey but we are excited to show you our story so far with a work in progress showing in mid-July. Friday 16th of July and Saturday 17th of July at Rumpus in Bowden.

Bruce sits in a swivel chair on the ground, with the stage behind him. Alirio stands at Bruce’s side with Bruce’s hand in his, stretching Bruce’s arm up. They share a tender look.
