Thursday 9:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
Ben H. Atherton-Zeman
"Voices of Men" is a 47 minute play that uses humor and
celebrity male voice impressions to educate about domestic violence, power
and control, and other forms of men's violence against women. One of the
characters, James Bond, has a nephew who is referred to a batterers' program
- Bond accompanies his nephew to the first group meeting and learns about
domestic violence. During the course of the group, Bond realizes he exhibits
controlling behavior in his relationships with women.
"Voices of Men contains graphic
representations of men’s violence against women ~ please use self-care
in deciding whether to attend."
