The World Looks Different Sitting Down

Written and performed by Teal Sherer

Directed and Choreographed by Jessica Wallenfels

February 20 - March 1, 2026

Have you ever become invisible in Whole Foods? Or fielded a stranger’s question about your sexual functioning? Enter the absurd world of Teal Sherer. The World Looks Different Sitting Down is her tale of confronting the world at crotch level to bust open misconceptions and limitations about life as a wheelchair user. Drawing from traditions of standup comedy, theater and dance, Teal’s storytelling weaves together realism with heightened physical theater for a bold, unapologetic evening that’s hilarious, enraging and heartrending.


Open captioning for all performances and additional seating for wheelchair-using patrons.
