In late September 2013, playwright Paul David Power's life changed forever when his same-sex partner of nine years passed away suddenly. In Crippled, he explores the debilitating effects of grief and the challenge of learning to move forward, while also living with a physical disability. Power, both the playwright and a performer in Crippled, is himself living with a physical disability, a not uncommon identity that nonetheless finds little representation on our stages.
