Script: Lawrence Jackman
Like many people, Kazumi was daunted by the idea of
singing in public. But at 58, he has decided to use his awe-inspiring singing
voice to channel his cerebral palsy (CP). As Kazumi draws from his exuberant,
poignant and painful experiences, performer and teacher Fides Krucker guides
him to embrace his inner artist. Kazumi’s one-man show features songs like
Smokey Robinson’s “Tracks of my Tears,” which take on new and unexpected
meaning in this moving account of self-discovery and transformation through
the power of song.
