STAND & DELIVER: MEN ARE PEOPLE, TOO

Local Production "Stand & Deliver" Raises Money for Sexual Abuse Center

Between chocolate candy, busy bunnies, and maypoles, it is difficult to not think about penises during the spring. In fact, there is an amateur theater team in Nashville, who can't seem to leave the topic alone. Inspired by "The Vagina Monologues" and brought you by "Read Our Lips" comes "Stand & Deliver: an Exploration of Manhood", a new production exploring masculinity through diverse perspectives.

This two hour show created by some of Nashville’s brightest minds explores such subjects as gender roles, pornography, masturbation, molestation, and the different interpretations of masculinity by modern society and more. All pieces are original and written by the cast, which includes women and men. Covering both the comedic and serious, this show has something to offer everyone.

"Stand & Deliver" is a fundraiser for the Sexual Abuse Center, a local facility which provides sexual assault services for people of all genders, ages, and financial classes. Their mission is "to end sexual violence and provide healing for children, adults, and families affected by sexual assault through counseling and education." More information about their programs is available at www.sacenter.org/.

"Stand & Deliver" performances will be Friday, April 24th-26th, venues and times TBA. Tickets are a special donation of $10 to the Sexual Abuse Center, cash and check accepted. Reservations: 615-945-2856 or Stand.And.Deliver.Nashville@gmail.com .
