About the Show:

A comedy show meets a TED Talk, Case 84 sheds light on the underrepresented experience of adoptees. Over the course of an hour and aided by visuals ranging from family photos to images of Superman, Edward answers all the questions he gets about being adopted.

Case 84 has toured in NYC, Philly, Toronto, Ithaca, Boston, D.C., Atlanta, Chicago, Minneapolis, LA, Austin, Houston and San Fran. Case 84 is a show for anyone who has struggled with identity or just feels like people misunderstand where they come from. It is an immersive journey through Edward’s experience growing up in Philadelphia as a transracial adoptee and touches on the influence of American media on identity, complex family dynamics, and ultimately what it means to be an American. There are silly, introspective, and also painful moments in the show. As Edward’s journey unfolds, viewers have the opportunity to learn alongside him, gaining insights into the challenges faced by adoptees and the power of self-discovery. This show is a love letter to adoptees and an invitation to learn more.
