Who Cares for the Caregivers: Dr. Janet McMordie on Vitals and Frontline Families Canada
Vitals is a solo show running May 2 to 10 at Factory Theatre in Toronto, and Dr. Janet McMordie says the question at the centre of it is one medicine does not answer well enough.
The show follows Anna, a paramedic whose life reaches a breaking point, and what happens when someone finally offers her permission to not be okay.
