Kuntz and Company presents "CRUTCH" (with open captions) 

Sunday January 12th @ 3:00, 2024 

Firehouse Arts and Events Center 

"CRUTCH" documents Bill's extraordinary journey: the history of his medical odyssey and his struggles with chronic pain, the evolution of his crutch dancing and skating, his rise to become a world-renowned performance artist, and his transformation from an angry skate punk to an international hero. "CRUTCH" also dives into Bill's provocative street performances, in which he exposes the hidden world of assumptions disabled people encounter in public, on a daily basis. While the film questions his early exploitation of strangers' good Samaritan impulses, it also marvels at Bill's ability to create solutions and empower others to navigate similar challenges.

 "CRUTCH" IS GENEROUSLY SPONSORED BY THE INSTITUTE FOR CRITICAL DISABILITY STUDIES AT WWU.
