My Dream - CHINA DISABLED PEOPLE’S PERFORMING ARTS TROUPE

A new event to add to the Yeti's Cultural Calendar.  I don't know much about this show, but someone passed me the info and said it was in support of the performers, who have various special needs (I'm still not comfy with the term "China Disabled People's" that the organizers use).

I love one of their actors bio page, where she talks about loosing her hearing and becoming a dancer.  She has a quote on there:

To all of us, some things are given, some things are withheld, over which sometimes we have no choice. But one can always choose one‘s outlook on life, and look more on the positive side, and face life’s disappointments with a cheerful and grateful heart.

They will be in Ottawa on October 14th - information is below from the Chinese Community Life Ottawa group, but I'm sure the NAC would have information on it as well... Oh look!  They DO have information posted:  http://nac-cna.ca/en/variety/event/2897
