A new arts festival seeks to raise awareness about people living with rare diseases and disabilities, Cheng Yuezhu reports.
A diverse ensemble of different ages, genders and degrees of physical mobility tell similar stories through the play, Rare Hug.
"I look different from everyone else. I sit in a wheelchair, measuring the floor with my hands. But I'm just like everyone else. I need to go to work in order to do what I like," a member of the group says onstage, during a recent performance of the stage production that seeks to highlight the lives of people with rare diseases.
