PG-13<\/p>\n<p>This performance is offered in ASL and spoken English.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2004, Alan R. Abarbanell has toured the United States with his<br \/>\ncritically acclaimed, one-man show, &#8220;The Abababa Road Tour&#8221; chronicling his<br \/>\nexperiences growing up hearing in a Deaf family. ABABABA&#8211;a name given to<br \/>\nhim by a friend who could not pronounce Abarbanell&#8211;is a proud CODA (Child<br \/>\nof Deaf Adults). Alan wrote this show as a loving tribute to his Deaf<br \/>\nheritage and CODA family. Each performance is dedicated to Alan&#8217;s parents<br \/>\nJoe and Yetta Abarbanell, whom he credits with his sense of humor,<br \/>\ncreativity and love for his community.<\/p>\n<p>Abababa takes his audiences on a rollercoaster ride of emotion; first<br \/>\npulling them through the hilarious rush and shocking twists of his youth,<br \/>\nthen plunging them into the tragedy and loss that followed, only to hurl<br \/>\nthem upwards towards uncontrollable laughter once again! With the simple<br \/>\nwave of a hand, Abababa renders each audience exhausted from gales of<br \/>\nlaughter and torrents of tears by evening&#8217;s end.<\/p>\n<p>All Proceeds go to Project N.A.D.I.N.E. to help continue our advocacy<br \/>\nefforts and to start new programs that will serve the Deaf community!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/projectnadine.org\/touracc.htm\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/projectnadine.org\/touracc.htm<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abababa Road Tour &#8212; ASL Storytelling Friday, August 27, 2010 at 7:00 pm Austin Community College, Eastview Campus, Multipurpose Room 8500 3401 Webberville Rd Austin TX 78702 Cost: $12 each admission &#8211; Some adult language.
