Actor and writer Daniel Toney will present his one-man show, offering a candid exploration of life with autism in the twenty-first century.

Toney, who was diagnosed with autism at an early age, brings his personal experiences to the stage in a refreshingly honest portrayal that challenges stereotypes and misconceptions surrounding neurodiversity. His show, aptly titled "Mine (or Unapologetically Autistic)," promises to take audiences on a heartfelt yet humorous journey through the intricacies of life on the spectrum.

"I wanted to create a show that highlights the reality of living with autism without sensationalizing or stigmatizing it," says Toney. "Through the character of the Writer, I hope to offer a unique perspective that encourages empathy, understanding, and, most importantly, laughter."

"The Writer of the Show" invites audiences to laugh along as Toney navigates the ups and downs of autism, from the challenges of receiving a diagnosis to navigating social interactions. With a mix of anecdotes and observations, Toney skillfully weaves together a narrative that celebrates the diversity of the human experience.

"I'm not saying everybody sees the world like this, but this is a perspective that maybe you never had," Toney remarks.

More than just entertainment, "The Writer of the Show" aims to increase the representation of neurodiversity on stage and inspire others on the spectrum to share their stories. As both the writer and performer, Toney is a powerful advocate for inclusivity and acceptance.
