13 volunteer stage actors will perform the stories of 14 ordinary people of Charlotte County living with mental illness in Riding the Waves. These people came forward to share the most intimate details of their lives, their struggles hoping that others would not feel alone.

The play will have two showings, with the first from September 30 to October 1 at the W.C. O’Neill Theater in St. Andrews at 7 pm (matinee at 2 pm on October 2) and October 14 and 15 at St. Stephen High School at 7 pm. Tickets are $20.
