BLANK in Chicago

With all the media hype today about celebrity and international adoptions, Stanton describes from an adoptee's point-of-view the prospect of meeting his birth mother and muses what it all means regarding identity. Playing 12 characters, Stanton explores every avenue that could possibly define him as a man ultimately discovering the horrific truth of his birth, an instinctive love for his birth mother and a grateful dedication to his adoptive family.

Show Running Time: 65 minutes

**Half of proceeds will be donated to the Adoptee Rights Coalition supporting unrestricted access to birth records for all.**

BLANK had its World Premiere in Los Angeles, CA in April of 2010. Since then, BLANK has visited Off Broadway New York, Dallas, Kansas City, Orlando and several cities in Southern California garnering critical acclaim along the way including a "Best Solo Actor" award at the United Solo Theatre Festival in New York City and 2 StageSceneLA awards: "Outstanding Actor in a Solo Performance" for Stanton and "Outstanding Director of a Solo Performance" for McKerrin Kelly. Stanton has also reached out to the adoption community performing for support organizations such as the American Adoption Congress, Concerned United Birthparents, Alliance for the Study of Adoption and Culture, and the upcoming Forget Me Not Family Society 2012 Workshop in Vancouver.
