No Limits, a nonprofit theater group for deaf children, celebrates its 20th anniversary with a special presentation at Carnegie Hall's Weill Recital Hall later this month.

On December 15, the company will perform its original theatrical documentary, Silent NO MORE, offering a collection of 10 life stories shared by individuals (ages 18-60) with hearing loss. Directed by No Limits Founder and Executive Director Michelle Christie, the cast of Silent NO MORE features five-time American Comedy Award nominee Kathy Buckley and acclaimed author Rebecca Alexander. Also in the ensemble are No Limits Theater Group alumni John Autry II, Alexis Cohen, Henry Greenfield, David Hawkins, Iris Lee, and Ivy Lee, among others.

The performance will be followed by an open-forum Q&A with cast members and audience members from the deafSign and deafSpeak communities. The piece has been performed to sold-out audiences across the country, including the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C.

Proceeds from Silent NO MORE will benefit No Limits, founded in 1996 to teach deaf children the skills to succeed in school and in life through its national theater program, No Limits Theater Group. The organization's after school centers are located in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, NV, and Oxnard, CA.
