Sheatre presents:

FAR FROM THE HEART

a play about date rape and negotiating safer relationships for secondary students


“On tour to secondary and senior public schools in April and May, 2008"
To book a show contact us at sheatre@sheatre.com.

 

The girls and guys are concerned about image, popularity, and sexual conquest at The Big Party. Felicity finds herself first tormented by her controlling boyfriend, and then raped by the guy who seemed to want to help her. Name-calling, threats, and cunning manipulation are their tactics. Her judgment is clouded by alcohol and inexperience.

What can Felicity do to stand up for herself and avoid having unwanted sex? Can her best friend help her? Who can? Will you?

Developed in collaboration with a group of teens from Owen Sound to Tobermory under the professional direction of Joan Chandler and Simon Malbogat, The Date Rape Theatre Forum aims to help students recognize the different forms pressure and violence in dating relationships can take, and explores the issues that inform this behavior.
