Sara Porter breaks up with the sun on stage
Published 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Description
What would you do if you suddenly couldn't go out in the sun? That's what happened to dancer and choreographer Sara Porter in her early 20s after developing a rare autoimmune disorder that left her unable to tolerate UV light. She's now turned that experience into Hello Sunshine! — a new solo performance that blends dance, music and memoir to explore life with an invisible disability. Sara joins Q guest host Garvia Bailey to talk about learning to live in the shade, finding comedy in the unexpected, and making art from a life-changing diagnosis.
