Part of the new normal has been getting back to the work she loves. After the encouragement of a friend, she put her story down on paper. “Once I got sick, I thought there goes my acting career,” she said. “I had lunch with a dear friend, René Moreno, who passed away a couple years ago. He was the director of the August Osage County production I acted in. He was in a wheelchair from a spinal cord injury. He took me out to lunch, and we compared stories. He told me, ‘You’re going to fi nd a way to express this dramatically.’ He is one of those people I respect so much. He is just one of those people, you do what he says. So, I got to work.” Next Wednesday and Th ursday, Jan. 22 and 23, Ward will present her solo, autobiographical play, “Stiff ,” which details her experience navigat- ing her diagnosis. “Stiff ” has been an award-winning audience favorite at festivals, conferences and theatres across the country. “Taking René’s advice, I started writing things down. I’m not a natural journal-keeper...but I was determined to create a show around my experience with doctors and with how it’s aff ected my acting work,” Ward said. “I was determined to write a show, but I didn’t just want to write about a sick lady. I wouldn’t want to see that, and I don’t want to put my friends through that. I was determined to make it funny.” Jim Crawford, associate professor of theatre at the University, per- formed in “August: Osage County” with Ward a few years ago, and he said working with her then was an unforgettable experience. “I was dazzled by her even then,” he said. “She was one of the best actors I’d ever worked with. I heard about this show she was developing, but I moved away from Dallas. When I fi nally got to see parts of the show, I was blown away.” he said. “She is somebody who has taken this diffi cult turn in life and turned it into such a funny, moving piece of art.” Moreover, in a community of writers and artists, Crawford said he hopes this show will be especially inspirational. “One of the things I love about the show is she did not turn things into an after school special. She has a really great, biting sense of humor, and that is so intact in this piece,” he said. “We have so many theatre artists, and I think it is a great example of someone taking something that happened to them and unexpectedly turning it into a piece of theatre. Take your broken heart and turn it into art.” Ward will perform “Stiff ” on Jan. 22 and 23, at 7:30 p.m. in the Tennessee Williams Center. Th e show is free and best suited for mature audiences. 6 • Friday, Jan. 17, 2020 • Th e Sewanee Mountain MESSENGER Get Financially Fit Babson by Bailey Basham, Messenger Staff Writer What made it to your list of New Year’s resolutions this year?
