9/11 Survivor, Author of "Unmeasured Strength"
"I went to work on September 11, 2001 and met a wall of fire that burned me over 80% of my body. I defied single digit odds to stay alive, my return home more than half a year later was just the beginning. The story of how I succeeded is not simply about finding the will to win. It's about physical and spiritual transformation, how in the face of tragedy I reinvented my life. It is evidence of the power that each of us has to transform ourselves, to win against the odds, to accomplish more than others, perhaps even we, believe possible."
Sunday - 3:30 - 5:00 The Luckiest Penny Musical
Musical Production for 'Kids 3 to 103'
"The Luckiest Penny" is an interactive original musical that shares why "Self-worth has NO price tag!" It is seen through the eyes of two rare, pure copper 1943 pennies. Allister believes that he is perfect because he lives in a plastic case which has protected him from taking life's tumbles. Henry, on the other hand, is a tossed about penny with different abilities, who knows what is really important in life.
The mission of the production is to accept each other's different ABILITIES in a fun and whimsical way!
Meet the author/composer following the show!
