    Feb 8 2024
    We're back!! (kind of)... This special bonus episode is coming to you live from the red carpet at the opening night of Broadway's "How to Dance in Ohio". "How to Dance in Ohio" is a heartwarming musical based on a true story. It follows a group of young adults on the autism spectrum who attend a group counseling center in Columbus, Ohio. As they prepare for a spring formal dance, a major rite of passage for many teenagers, they navigate their anxieties, hopes, and dreams about love, independence, and fitting in. Through humor, music, and genuine connection, the characters overcome their challenges and discover the courage to step outside their comfort zones. The show is praised for its uplifting message, its celebration of neurodiversity, and its talented cast, which features seven autistic actors. So, it's not just about learning to dance, but about embracing individuality, facing fears, and finding your place in the world.
