Stand Up for Mental Health
(Comedy, that is)

Jonathon

I just saw a 1-hour documentary on TVO, where mental health patients [[heal]] by working to perform stand-up comedy. Indeed, Arts in Health Care can be more effective than drugs. After a successful set of performances, they decide to tour. The grand finale is at a 450-seat theatre, and they arrive in fine clothes in a stretch limousine.

Stand Up for Mental Health

Reminds me of U2′s Bono’s lyric from Beautiful Day:
“I know I’m not a hopeless case.”
