Stand Up for Mental Health coming to Keyano

Aiming to reduce the stigma of mental illness, Some Other Solutions is once again hosting Stand Up for Mental Health during mental illness awareness week.

The event will feature local residents who will share their journey of the road to mental wellness through their stand up comedy.

They’ll be joined on stage by Stand Up For Mental Health founder David Granirer. “We will give the audience a whole different perspective on mental illness.

“We have a lot of negative stereotypes about people with mental illness. At this show the audience will see people with mental illness who are funny, positive, and likable,” said Granirer.

“It’ll be funny with professional quality material so audience can expect to have non-stop laughs plus they’ll be inspired by seeing what people with mental illness can achieve,” he said.

Tickets go on sale Tuesday for the October 8th show at Keyano Recital Theatre.
