FUNNY, YOU DON’T LOOK AUTISTIC
by Michael McCreary
Directed by Patrick McDonald
Produced by Green Thumb Theatre
Life is too short, so why not have fun with it?
Funny, You Don’t Look Autistic is a theatrical adaptation of Michael’s autobiographical book of the same name, published in 2019 by Annick Press. The show blends Michael’s trademark deadpan delivery with Green Thumb’s history for bringing socially conscious theatre to the stage. The show will touch audiences deeply, while making them laugh out loud. Michael’s story is one of challenge, growth, and ultimately triumph.
Michael McCreary is an autistic comedian, author, and TEDX speaker who has been performing stand-up comedy since age 13. He has performed stand-up shows and keynote speeches in every province in Canada, Yukon territory, and across the United States. He has been featured on The National and CBC Radio’s “Laugh Out Loud”.
Green Thumb Theatre creates and produces plays that explore social issues relevant to the lives of children, youth and young adults. We provide theatre that celebrates the language and stories of today’s generation and culture to stimulate empathy, debate and critical thinking.
Presented as part of Globe Theatre’s Theatre for Young Audiences series.
