In this rousing true story, stage and screen veteran James Hindman is a man of a certain age who finds himself paralyzed by self-doubt, when a serious health scare upends his life. Luckily he isn’t the type to let a life-threatening heart attack dampen his spirits… or his obsession with Cher.

In this fast-paced, one-man extravaganza, Hindman seamlessly moves between characters to tell a story that bounces from light-hearted camp to poignant reflections on life’s greatest challenges. The Irish Times called his performance “stagecraft and storytelling at its best.”

What Doesn’t Kill You is an invigorating reminder that the show must go on! Produced by New Jersey Repertory Company in association with Vasi Laurence Productions and M. Green Productions.

Audience Advisory: Please note that What Doesn’t Kill You discusses a visit to a concentration camp.
