Cripples ain't supposed to be happy" sings Anita Hollander,
balancing on her single leg and grinning broadly. This moment-from
her multi-award-winning one-woman show, Still Standing-captures the
essence of this theatre anthology. Hollander and nineteen other
playwright-performers craftily subvert and smash stereotypes about
how those within the disability community should look, think, and
behave. Utilizing the often-conflicting tools of Critical
Disability Studies and Medical Humanities, these plays and their
accompanying essays approach disability as a vast, intersectional
demographic, which ties individuals together less by whatever
impairment, difference, or non-normative condition they experience,
and more by their daily need to navigate a world that wasn't built
for them. From race, gender, and sexuality to education, dating,
and pandemics, these plays reveal there is no aspect of human life
that does not, in some way, intersect with disability.
