Begin Again Badge by Cristela Carrizales
Lifeline Productions is pleased to present the world premiere of Begin Again Badge—a deeply personal solo performance written and performed by Cristela Carrizales.
​
The piece traces her journey through identity, trauma, validation, addiction, and recovery—ultimately arriving at a place of self-recognition and choice. Through storytelling, humor, and theatrical design, the show explores what it means to be seen, to survive, and to begin again.
In this signature production that’s emotionally powerful while filled with unexpected humor, Carrizales delivers a standout performance that’s human, accessible, and often disarming in its honesty. Begin Again Badge is a beautifully unfiltered ride through the wreckage and the rebuild—equal parts confession, catharsis, and can’t-miss theater.
