The Subject Project

Join us for the first regional reading of "The Subject" by Carolyn Kras to raise awareness about sexual assault issues and protest lenient rape sentences, such as the six-month sentence of the Brock Turner case.
This powerful play explores the cover up of the alleged assault in the late 1700s on Princess Sophia of the United Kingdom, daughter of King George III.
"The Subject Project [is] an international theatre movement dedicated to raising awareness about sexual assault issues and protesting lenient rape sentences…It’s a grassroots initiative combining art and activism to spark conversation and change." --Carolyn Kras
