That’s Just Crazy Talk’ is a thoughtful and funny one-woman play that looks at both the light and dark side of living with bipolar disorder, anxiety and psychosis. The play is both written and performed by Victoria Maxwell, who is an acclaimed actress and mental health educator. Based on Victoria’s lived experiences with bipolar disorder, it describes one woman’s journey of coming to terms with mental illness within herself and in her family.

We invite healthcare professionals, people living with bipolar disorder, family members and the general public to join us. A question and answer period with Victoria will follow the performance. Please note that registration for the live performance is required. For further event details and to register please contact Sally McBride, Knowledge Exchange Manager, via email: sally.mcbride@ubc.ca
