Project summary

Stroke Odysseys is a dance theatre performance and national education programme that engages the public with a discussion about neural plasticity, the creative process and stroke recovery. The performance will feature professional artists working alongside people living with the effects of a stroke. 

The project is supported by neuroscientists and is designed to engage a wide range of people in a debate about the role of creativity in stroke recovery including: those who have had a stroke and their families; health professionals; neuroscientists interested in the relationship between neuroplasticity, the creative process and neurological recovery; as well as artists and researchers.
