Sex Educator
Photo Booth at the Inaugural ‘Script Tease: Theatre Inspired by Sex Ed’
Creator of ‘Script Tease: Theatre Inspired by Sex Ed’
Putting education and knowledge at the forefront, Script Tease features the work of five playwrights who write or provide short plays to feature inspired by scientifically accurate sexuality facts. The aim is to promote sex education and discussions on sexuality as well as fundraise for charity.
A great deal of social/cultural messaging and stigmas surrounding sexuality comes from art, entertainment, and media. This project came from the desire to create content that promotes open conversations about sexuality, curiosity for science, and makes sex education accessible, approachable, and fun.
Theatre Specialist at Project Speak Out Loud!
Project Speak Out Loud! (PSOL) is a peer education program supported by queer youth of color ages 14-24 and their allies. Peer educators provide free sexuality education workshops that are sex-positive, comprehensive, and inclusive to community members throughout NYC. Peer educators participate in a Social Justice Theatre course (run by me!) which frames theatre as a way to take up space, be heard, and make social change. The program culminates in a full length performance to be devised by the ensemble.
