<div><strong>Have you or someone you love been affected by cancer, or other serious illness? </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Have you or someone you love been failed by the American healthcare system due to discriminatory bias, language barrier, or unfounded assumptions made by a healthcare worker or insurance provider? </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Have you or someone you love felt ignored, dismissed, or doubted when seeking medical treatment, left with more questions than answers? </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Us too. And we're <em>sick of it. </em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>THE PROJECT:</strong>
</div>
<div>Written by mother/daughter team, Amanda and Terry Miller, <em>Quacks &amp; Whacks: A Cancer Comedy</em> uses absurdist humor, clowning, puppetry, music, and animation to spotlight the very real struggles and triumphs of navigating the three-ring circus of living with advanced stage cancer in America. We join Sharon, a 45-year-old teacher (and the colorful cast of cancer cells singing, dancing &amp; hiking through her body) as she dodges gravel cravings and horny doctors in pursuit of effective screening, humane healthcare, and, really, any kind of answers at all.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thus-far, Terry (mother of this play, living with cancer to this day) and Amanda (co-writer, performer, devoted daughter) have funded the production out of their own pockets. However, <strong>we need your help to bring this play to life. </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Furthermore, in the spirit of showing up for one another where The System continues to fall short, we are committed to sharing 50% of funds raised with the <a href="https://reddoorcommunity.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Red Door Communit</a>y (formerly Gilda's Club) which provides FREE cancer support, emotional and educational programs, and healthy lifestyle workshops online and in-person.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>We aim to raise $12,000* by opening night, April 4th, 2025. </strong>
</div>
<ul>
<li>$6,000 to complete production costs.
</li>
<li>$6,000 to support Red Door in its mission to ensure that no one faces cancer alone.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>*Any <em>additional</em> funds raised will be split the same way, with our half prioritizing reimbursing the artists.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Aside from being a riotous hour of buffoonery (if we don’t laugh, we cry, and possibly die), <em>Quacks &amp; Whacks </em>aims to create a space where we can commiserate in community. <strong>Together, we can identify the sorest spots, and unite in pushing for change so the American healthcare system can better serve its patients. </strong>We humbly invite you to join our quest by donating if you can, and sharing this page far and wide.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>They say laughter is the best medicine. With your help, this spring, the doctor is in.
