The Malady Mysteries Project is an interdisciplinary practice-as-research project led by students and faculty in theatre and medicine. The project opens actors and audiences to a world inhabited by people with chronic illness and disability, creating a space to work out the anxieties of the present within the safety of the past to give us hope and promise for the future.

Malady Mysteries is supported in part by the UGA Arts Collaborative.
