A unique group of performers: Some blind, some deaf, and others handicapped, but all sharing the same dream. That's what you'll see in "My Dream Four", the latest from China Disabled People's Art Troupe. The show does more than dazzle the eye - it awes the audience with sheer dedication and talent.
