Nightwood Theatre - God's Middle Name

Last play in the Groundswell Festival series. Very impactful play depicting the challenge of raising an autistic child. The use of various media and a clever and spare set, accented by the analogy of game shows and a dance marathon, reinforced the seemingly futile/ unending nature of a parent's task. Self reflective, the actor playing the mother was amazing. The dad/autistic son was also strong.
