SUMMARY:Behind the Red Door Stageplay
DESCRIPTION:Mighty Productions presents “Behind the Red Door\,” a groundbreaking play by a Liberian playwright and author that delves into the complexities of love and the hidden truths that can lurk behind closed doors. With a focus on exploring the depths of human relationships through the effects of culture and societal pressure\, this thought-provoking production tackles the issues of domestic violence and its lasting effects on an individual. With a talented cast and a captivating storyline\, “Behind the Red Door” offers a must-see theatrical experience that entertains and sheds light on important cultural and social issues. \nAdditionally\, “Behind the Red Door” fearlessly tackles the subject of PTSD and sexual abuse\, shedding light on the effects a silent culture can have on a victim\, its devastating consequences and the healing process survivors endure. By giving voice to the survivors\, the play aims to break the silence surrounding sexual abuse and challenge the social and cultural stigmas that often shroud this issue. It provides a platform for discussions on consent\, survivor support\, and the importance of believing and validating survivors’ experiences. \nThe writer\, director\, and executive producer of this play is a born native of Liberia\, Monrovia. Every topic explored in this production is important to her because it is based on her personal experience. She has partnered with a nonprofit organization called Saprea as her charity of choice to give back proceeds from the play. Saprea exists to liberate individuals and society from child sexual abuse and its lasting impact. Their mission aligns perfectly with Ivis’ cause and so she has joined in the fight for change in hopes that she can impact a global culture that silences the victims by perpetuating certain behaviors. \nBehind the Red Door premieres on August 20th\, 2023. It will be presented on the Metro Waterproofing Main Stage at the Lawrenceville Art Center in the Bobby Sikes Fine Arts Building. This production promises to be an unforgettable experience that will leave you thinking long after the final curtain call. \nIf you’d like to support this production and help bring the powerful message of “Behind the Red Door” to life\, please visit Indiegogo and donate to the crowdfunding.
