Choreographer and Artistic Director Eloy Barragan wrote, " I was first inspired to choreograph “Unfinished” when I read ... Michael Judge’s interview with the world-renowned Dr. E. Fuller Torrey, author of Surviving Schizophrenia. Michael’s family story—his two older brothers, Steve and John, suffered terribly from schizophrenia, the latter taking his own life at 21—moved me greatly. Then, The Judge family introduced me to Margalea Warner, a former Iowa Writers Workshop participant and survivor of schizophrenia who has spent the last three decades speaking and writing about her personal experience and her '27 Keys to Wellness.'"
