POST
SHOW TALK-BACK AND RECEPTION WITH
HOLLABACK
NYC AND GIRLS FOR GENDER EQUITY:
Monday, June 16th 8pm
Join us for the performance of
STANDING CLEAR on June 16th and stay for the post show talk-back
and reception. The creative team behind STANDING CLEAR will be
joined by representatives from
Hollaback NYC and Girls for Gender
Equity.
Hollaback has
been battling subway harassment via an online "out your
harasser" campaign.
You can write in your own stories of Subway
harassment on their blog format and include a photo of your
harasser to warn fellow passengers.
Girls for
Gender Equity is
a Bed-Stuy based organization committed to empowering young women
to fight street harassment within their own community.
This is our chance get to the
darker, underbelly of the subway. It's not all funny and beautiful.
It can be a minefield, and we wanted a chance to expose some
of that side. Both of these organizations work tirelessly to
shed a light on something that happens every day and yet is often
not taken seriously. We thought it was a perfect fit for Coffee
Cup, as we work tirelessly to shed a light on the everyday interactions
that are taken for granted. One might say, we are two sides of
the same coin.
Tickets for
this performance are $30,
and will include the FULL
RECEPTION with open
bar and hors
d'oeuvres.
A PORTION OF EACH TICKET WILL
BE DONATED TO GIRLS FOR GENDER EQUITY.
