About the Show

A new intimate solo show about one woman's experience of recovering from depression.

'The Road Back' chronicles Adina Taubman’s personal experience of severe depression which began 12 years ago. A story told with humor and frankness, this is a play for anyone who has suffered with depression and anxiety. Adina Taubman and director Padraic Lillis' previous collaboration 'A Line in the Sand' was awarded the Pulitzer Award for Excellence in Writing and the Meryl Streep Award for Excellence in Acting at the PortFringe Festival.

Critic Reviews (1)

"While 'The Road Back' could probably benefit from a tighter focus (especially early on), and more narrative cohesion (it gets a little episodic and rambling in parts), as it is, it's enough. The reality of Taubman's struggle comes through in her bold, unashamed recounting of it. More amazing than the story itself is her willingness to share it, and in so doing, to relive experiences many of us would prefer to forget."
