Amy and the Orphans
by Ground Floor Theatre
Aug. 14 - Aug. 30, 2025
Amy and the Orphans centers around Amy, a woman with Down syndrome, and her siblings who reunite after the death of their father. As the siblings embark on a road trip to their father's funeral, they navigate complex family dynamics, long-held secrets, and differing expectations for Amy's future. The play offers a nuanced exploration of identity, family bonds, and the challenges faced by individuals with disabilities, all while balancing humor with poignant emotional moments. Amy’s character, in particular, shines as a testament to independence and self-advocacy.
