Cut Loose! by Ali Stroker

A candid, funny, and fiercely honest memoir about growing up with a disability, navigating medical systems and ableist assumptions, and finding refuge and purpose in the theater; it traces the author’s journey from childhood challenges and complex family dynamics to breaking barriers as a performer on Broadway—including becoming the first actor who uses a wheelchair to win a Tony—while reflecting on identity, relationships, access, and the hard-earned joy of claiming full belonging.
