Summary
It is not enought o just raise awareness. We have to do something, and we need others around us to join in. Featuring short plays, poems, spoken word, and monologues written primarily by youth, the Out & Allied Anthology explores identity, sexuality, questions about life, love and acceptance. Using performance to communicate about the challenges, this anthology compels all of us to be better allies. Contributions are from Maine, all over the US, and Canada, and were developed specifically for performance. The pieces have been performed on college stages, for assemblies in high school gymnasiums, for intimate performances in classes, in response to hate crimes, at fundraisers, and can be used for any other opportunity to start a conversation. We hope that by reading and performing these pieces you find yourself to be a stronger ally, and even be moved to write and perform your own. This is only the beginning..
