Inside My Head: The Musical at the Clarice, Jan 22

The University of Maryland and the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center present:
Inside My Head: The Musical

Wednesday, January 22, 2025 • 8PM

Venue: Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center.

The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Maryland is excited to present Inside My Head, an autobiographical musical about one person’s journey with bipolar, on Wednesday, January 22nd, 2025, at the University of Maryland’s Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center.

This one-man show by Broadway performer Zak Sandler begins with Zak’s first manic and depressive episodes during his junior year at Yale University. On stage, the pre-recorded voices of Zak’s mania and depression sing to him like they’re inside his head. This groundbreaking, one-night-only production will take each of us on a personal journey to examine the deepest, most vulnerable parts of ourselves—the ones we may not want others to see—and reveal how we can move from shame and denial to self-love and acceptance.

In addition to this ticketed performance, NAMI Maryland is hosting a VIP reception preceding the show. Join us for hot and cold hors d’oeuvres while enjoying a unique opportunity to network with local and statewide decision-makers, community leaders, NAMI Maryland staff, and other VIPs.

Tickets: $20 regular, $100 VIP. Click here.
