| Further Information |
'When Emily Hurley discovered that her great Grandmother Emily Horrell had suffered an episode of post-partum psychosis and was institutionalized for a year at Sunnyside Mental Hospital from 1932 to 1933, she was inspired to dig deeper. Hurley began devising a theatre piece about the strength it takes to overcome mental illness as well as the stigma around it.'
