Slut: The Play

Slut: The Play, written by Katie Cappiello, was inspired by the real experiences of high school students and developed over two years with teenage actors from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Virginia in weekly creative sessions led by The Arts Effect. The play follows the journey of 16-year-old Joanna Del Marco who is assaulted by three friends during a night out in NYC, and highlights the damaging impact of rape culture on the lives of young people and the importance of being heard.
