Kristin Newbom’s Telethon is a frank dark comedy that crosses boundaries, blurring the line between able and disabled, challenging perceptions of people with severe disabilities and unmasking America’s inequitable social structure of caregiving.
> Read MoreShelly loves her Blow Pop and Todd believes in fairies. Jerry’s got a busted chakra, but he eats the roughage so his poop is clean. And Ann somehow has to get Houston to understand that caregiving doesn't pay the bills, especially the way her daughter buys Pokemon. That just leaves Scott, who's face down on the table, unable to handle one more bathroom break or having to pay for the stuffed sheep. Welcome to our world.
