Abby Corrigan asks the question: if we’re not the same, can we be equal?
On Friday, July 7 at Warehouse 242, 19-year-old Charlotte born-and-bred actress Abby Corrigan made a hometown pit stop during her cross-country journey playing a leading role in the acclaimed national tour of Fun Home. Over 300 fellow creative Charlotteans were riveted by her personal and powerful story of growing up in a theatrical household with her twin sister, Emma, who has Down Syndrome. By the end, there was nary a dry eye in the house – and we had all been treated to Abby’s unique perspective on twinship, individuality, anxiety, creative connection, and Equality.
