Still Ill
As common on neurology wards as MS, Functional Neurological Disorder looks and feels like a problem with the workings of the brain. Sufferers can experience tremors, seizures, blindness, paralysis – all with no physical cause. With three actors and live music, Kandinsky’s new show explores the unsettling world of the undiagnosable.
With three actors and live music, Still Ill looks at the search for meaning that follows a difficult diagnosis – and how it feels to be told there’s nothing physically wrong with you when your brain is telling you you’re sick.
Still Ill returns to New Diorama Theatre 16-27 January 2018. For more information and to buy tickets click here
