Entertainment: “Voices of Men”
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.”
