In this one-woman musical, Wambui Bahati shares her powerful story of growing up in Greensboro, North Carolina and launching a theatrical career on Broadway, only to have her success cut short by mental illness. At times hilariously funny and always relentlessly honest, Balancing Act presents an intelligent, informative portrayal of bipolar mood disorder and its effects on her self-esteem, career, relationships and day-to-day coping. From her ordeal, she emerges with hope for her future as she comes to terms with her illness in a way that inspires and informs us all. The music styles in the show include R&B, jazz, calypso, pop and gospel. Through her show you experience her journey. One minute you are holding your stomach and laughing hysterically and the next you are trying to dab your tears without anyone noticing. By the end we are all uplifted - feeling a little stronger - ready to take on the next challenge. She has reminded us of who we really are.
