imperfect is a story of artists…who live and perform with the uniqueness of disability, and have historically been denied their place in the spotlight. The documentary follows a company of actors with all nature of disabilities – from spinal cord injury to Parkinson’s Disease, cerebral palsy to autism – as they attempt an unprecedented version of Kander, Ebb, and Fosse’s beloved musical Chicago. Capturing the raw, honest stories of the actors inside the production process and outside the theatre in their everyday lives, imperfect reveals a rare behind-the-scenes look at talented artists who push to succeed as professional performers, no matter the obstacles. imperfect crushes stale notions of disability and affirms the human condition…in all its many forms.
