Award -winning actor, director, writer and educator Annie Torsiglieri talks to Melanie and Katie about raising her twin boys while holding onto her artistic life after one of her children received an early autism diagnosis. As life's trajectory continued to unfold in unexpected ways, Annie’s humor, curiosity and fierce mama mojo led her family through the darkness and into the light. For 21 years, Annie has worked to understand, celebrate and advocate for her kids while all the time digging deeper into her creative self. You’ll hear a Zen parable, laugh-til-you-cry song lyrics, and a few artfully used F-bombs in an unforgettable story about the life-changing power of theatre. And spoiler alert: you’ll never think of strawberries the same way. More on Annie:@annietorsihttps://www.theaterdance.ucsb.edu/people/anne-torsiglierihttps://www.atraintheplay.comhttps://the-art-of-autism.comhttps://52project.org
