More About SHE:

The best way to describe SHE is Eve Ensler’s THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES meets Ntozake Shange’s FOR COLORED GIRLS. It is dance, it is music, it is about sexual violence, what happened to Sandra Bland after being stopped by a police officer in Texas, and it is storytelling about healing from trauma and pain. It originally featured women were actual survivors of sexual violence, in their childhoods, as adults, or both.  These women's characters will now be portrayed by professional actors.  For more information on SHE please visit http://www.jinahparker.com/#!the-show/b7gw6

“SHE was beyond sobering, yet so beautifully done! I left New York Live Arts moved to the core.” – Michelle Y. Thompson, Judson Memorial Church
