For one night only, researchers will be joined by local musicians and persons with lived experience of illness to share their insights on the cabaret stageExpect song, stand-up, and more as this event takes invisible experiences of health, illness, and disability, and makes them visible. The researchers work on a diverse range of topics, including hearing voices, breathlessness, anxiety, dreams, neurodiversity, trauma, menopause, medically unexplained symptoms and spirituality, all of which will feature in this cabaret line up. It’s research, but with added jazz hands!So, as Liza Minnelli once said, &quot;what good is sitting alone in your room?
