Photo: David Cooper “I just got home from seeing maladjusted. Thank you for making real theatre – theatre about and by people personally involved in large-impact, under-discussed, systematic experiences within our culture. Thank you for doing the impossible – for catalyzing deep and important conversation between strangers.” Kathryn Binnersley “maladjusted was a life changing performance!!’ Jenny Chen “maladjusted was so touching and well performed. 10 thumbs up!” Micha Souaid "I attended maladjusted and am forever changed." Kay Robinson “Thanks to Theatre for Living’s innovative and radical approach to the subject, maladjusted yields cheers along with tears.” Stuart Dreyden, Province Newspaper © Theatre for Living
