SLUT delves deep into teen sexual assault, one of the most frightening and highly discussed topics in the news today. On a cold night in New York City, Joey Del Marco puts on her favorite dress, her highest heels, and meets up with her oldest friends, George, Luke, and Tim, for a little pre-gaming. They play video games, dance, and down an entire bottle of Absolut.
Everything is hazy fun, until they squeeze into the back of a cab Inspired by experiences of the teen cast members, the critically acclaimed new play SLUT explores the sexual assault and shaming of a year-old girl. Through Joey's story and those of girls in her community, witness the damaging effects of slut culture and the importance of being heard. Girls' Coalitions were created in over 25 high schools across the city, and each Coalition created their own unique approach to stop slut-shaming and sexual aggression.
The book will feature the script of the play, thought-provoking essays from renowned writers, and real stories from real teens. The release date will be announced later this spring. We are determined 'to hold a mirror up to nature' - our societal nature - by exploring the community response to slut-bashing and sexual aggression, and the unfortunately common INACTION of bystanders.
