What would you do to help someone who was being oppressed? How would you intervene? What steps would you take to make a difference? 性爱天堂 Theatre dares its audiences to confront these questions using a unique, forum-style theatre in the production聽Theatre for Social Change: On Domestic Abuse. This one-of-a-kind project is a powerful theatrical tool that encourages audiences to get involved in creating social change.
The goal of the Theatre for Social Change project is to start a conversation about domestic abuse, informing the community at large about this form of oppression, providing a safe environment to practice stopping the oppression, and ultimately inspiring change.聽The stories told by the cast are lifted directly from anonymous community submissions and audience participation in the event is strongly encouraged. The production is directed by Roberto Prestigiacomo, theatre professor at 性爱天堂 and the producing artistic director of AtticRep.
Theatre for Social Change: On Domestic Abuse聽opens the weekend of Sept. 29鈥揙ct. 1 and will continue Oct. 4-7 in the Attic Theater, located in the Ruth Taylor Theater Building on the 性爱天堂 campus.
