←Recommendations of #WeToo: a dialogue

This play definitely touches on the triggering impact of the #metoo movement and the outpouring of experiences that have been bottled up for years/decades from survivors who are FINALLY being listened to. It also touches on the need to share but the still be frozen in a way that doing anything about it feel hopeless. Very much worth the read!

Stubbles creates a remarkable play with only a few pages. Striking, painful, unflinching, courageous and respectful. This piece says so much without spending much time. There is a strength when we speak up and to each other, regardless of whether or not we are actually physically with each other. Stubbles tells us respectfully that silence is overrated. Another winner by this fantastic playwright.

An inventive, provocative short play that captures, with brief yet masterful strokes, the disillusion and uncertainty and also the profound courage of the #metoo era. It invites men as well as women to enter into meaningful discussion, and while the resolution appears to stop short of further proactiveness, the piece suggests that the willingness to begin speaking about abuse is in itself a triumph. Ideal for any festival of shorts!

A powerful short play about responding to childhood sexual abuse and inappropriate behavior from adults, about the courage tell our truth even if it's uncomfortable/difficult. The structure may remind you of some scenes from Paula Vogel's How I Learned To Drive. Vogel would probably enjoy this play. Check it out, read it, share it, produce it. Highly recommended for college productions. Perfect for a #metoo festival.

A really moving (and harrowing) theatrical take on #MeToo, with two old friends (male and female) forced to relive their traumatic experiences of the past, and with each other. Stubbles does so much here in just a few pages. A very powerful short play.
