“Most Likely Not to…,” a musical comedy written and performed by people with the rare, neuromuscular condition spinal muscular atrophy, will make its world debut in New York City on World Rare Disease Day and be streamed live online. The show, part of Genentech’s SMA My Way awareness campaign, highlights the absurdities that people with disabilities often experience. We spoke to the show’s lead actress Shannon DeVido, and the show’s creative director Adam Pryor, about the play, living with SMA, and DeVido’s pursuit of a career as a performing artist despite having the condition.
