Script features two male actors for my April 23, 2021 theatre show called "Voices Matter" with my company Creative Collaborations. The plays focus on the following topics so it may not be a good fit for some actors. This project is mainly for those who are passionate about raising awareness to these topics and want to offer education to the audience.
