Step Up Productions' HANDICAP THIS! Begins in January at Stage 773

Step Up Productions continues its 2014-15 season with a special one-week engagement of the touching and humorous two-man show HANDICAP THIS! - part comedy, part storytelling and part insight on living with disabilities. Written and performed by nationally acclaimed duo Mike Berkson and Tim Wambach, HANDICAP THIS! is inspired by the original script by Molly Mulcrone and directed by Denis Berkson. This special collaboration will play January 21 - 25, 2015 at Stage 773, 1225 W. Belmont Ave. in Chicago. Tickets go on sale Tuesday, November 18 at www.stepupproductions.org or www.stage773.com, by calling (773) 327-5252 or in person at the Stage 773 Box Office. The press performance is Wednesday, January 21 at 8 pm.

Comedic duo Mike Berkson (born with cerebral palsy) and Tim Wambach (his one-time aide) tap the power of laughter for an unconventional evening of storytelling. The unique journey of their friendship over the past 13 years celebrates the power of diversity and inclusion - and provides new insight on people living with disabilities.

Partial proceeds from HANDICAP THIS! will benefit the Keep On Keeping On Foundation, assisting those living with severe physical disabilities and educating and empowering others to make a difference in their community.

As part of its mission, Step Up Productions donates a portion of its proceeds to organizations in and around Chicago that support issues often highlighted in its productions.
