Description
A three-night performance of the play When We Were Young and Unafraid, Written by Sarah Treem and Directed by Cameron King at the East Village Basement (321 East 9th Street, New York, NY 10003).
The play unfolds in 1970, before the Violence Against Women Act. Agnes and her adoptive daughter Penny own a home for domestically abused women seeking to heal in a “home away from home”. A truthful re-telling of the female experience, each character’s experience embodies the challenges of womanhood at different stages of life. In this artistic collaboration, we will be partnering with local non-profit domestic abuse organizations to help raise awareness and expose the audience to the realities of these situations. Through funding and ticket sales, we will donate a portion of the proceeds to Safe Horizon, a local non-profit for victims and survivors of domestic violence, homelessness and others in need.
