"Dare To Tell” - Uses the Art and Drama to bring awareness to violence.
"The Yellow Dress"
Targeted Audience - Teens, Youth, Young Adults and Adults - Play can be customized by age group
"The Yellow Dress" - a dramatic one-woman act play is based on the stories of young women who were victims of dating violence. The carefully constructed program stimulates thought-provoking discussion about relationships — a topic important to every young person’s life. Audiences are clearly moved by the story of a young woman who warmly tells us of her relationship — that begins as young love, full of passion and promise and ends in tragedy. Play written and produced by Deana's Fund.
Mandatory post performance discussion brings professionals, and survivors together to talk about:
a. Dating violence prevention and early warning signs
b. By products of dating violence
c. Support - LIFT3 Support Group Teen Resource Center - Include Books, CDs, DVDs that address the by-products of teen dating violence:
- Attempted suicide
- Unwanted pregnancy
- Drug use
- Unhealthy methods of diet
NOTE: Because performances are conducted for a general audience, batterers who may attend performances and have not previously sought assistance are encouraged to come forward for help and resources on how they can end the cycle of abuse.
