Considered a play of visionary quality, “The Recovering” addresses society’s failure to accept and include the mentally ill in its fabric of communal cohesion. It challenges the prescription of the medical model as the lone solution to the complex needs that a human life encounters when struggling with one’s mind and spirit. Like anyone, purpose, human support, a feeling of belongingness, dreams, financial security, and understanding are the essential anecdotes to discrimination, isolation, and despair. See how a small community hub invites with open arms the estranged to inspire their own communal acceptance in an otherwise cold world which advocates a pill over a human heart.
