About the show
 

EMBRACE ME is a comedy show about dating with a disability.

 

It's very funny and surprisingly heartfelt.

 

It's about a break-up, but also about putting yourself together.

It's about 65 minutes long with no intermission.

The show covers some heavier themes like mental health, sex, and self-harm.

Even with the heaviness, it's still hilarious and fun.

It's best for people above the age of 18.

You'll like the show no matter if you're disabled or abled.

You'll also like it because it's smart and goofy.

If you have specific needs (like ASL interpretation or CC), please reach out!

If you see the show and like it, please let Jack know.

If you see the show and dislike it, that's on you, bb.
