Expression and Connection, Everyone has a Part
The Talk To Me Aphasia Drama Club was founded in 2020 by a person with aphasia with support from MnCAN. This club is an arts and drama outlet developed by and for people with aphasia. It provides diverse theater experiences for its participants. This includes theater-inspired activities, improvisation, gesture work, and script reading as able and performance opportunities.
