Fishamble: The New Play Company presents
The Wheelchair on My Face
Written and performed by Sonya Kelly
Directed by Gina Moxley
Produced by Marketa Dowling
I got my first pair of glasses when I was seven. A nurse came to the school and tested everyone’s eyes. And so it was discovered why I’d thrown brad to the floating crisp packets in our local pond and walked into lamp posts and said, ’excuse me’. Until that day the world was a swirl of moving coloured blobs. I thought it was the same for everyone. How wrong I was.
Combining memoir, theatre and stand-up comedy, this delightful story of a myopic seven year old is brought to you by actor and comedian Sonya Kelly.
