By Gretchen Case, Director of the Center for Health Ethics, Arts & Humanities at the University of Utah and Dan Froot, Producer, Writer, Director, Actor, Composer, Saxophonist and the Founder of Dan Froot & Company


Facilitated by Gretchen Case from the Center for Health Ethics, Arts, and Humanities and Dan Froot of Dan Froot & Company, this discussion will focus on the ethical questions that arise when telling stories publicly that involve emotionally difficult or traumatic experiences. Medical providers often share stories from their clinical work to explore or illustrate critical issues, and the ethical conundrums associated with talking about medical encounters are well-known. How do you tell a story, on the stage or the page, that respects privacy and avoids re-traumatization, but still has the desired impact on your audience?

Osher members attending this Lunch and Learn session are encouraged to attend Dan Froot & Company’s Arms Around America on April 9-10 at UtahPresents. For those unable to do so, a summary of the performance and the creative process behind it will be provided at the beginning of the discussion.
