Voices of Men

Thursday, July 17th at 7pm
At Stageworks in Channelside
1120 E. Kennedy Blvd, Tampa
(Corner of Kennedy and Meridian)

 

An informative and entertaining one-person play that deals with important issues such as sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence and sexual harassment. Voices of Men uses humor, celebrity male voice impressions, and video clips to promote learning and understanding.

Most men do not rape and do not abuse, but they remain silent when it comes to speaking out against violence.  If you know a man (or you ARE a man) who supports the Crisis Center's goals to stop violence against women, come to this performance to learn more and get involved.
