Destigmatized: A Performance to Benefit PPAF

The Red Mic Repertory Company and Unidentified Stages are proud to present Destigmatized: A Night of True Stories from women, uterus-owners, and allies refusing to go back at CDC Theatre in Cranford, NJ, on Friday, August 12, 2022 at 7:30pm. This performance will benefit Planned Parenthood Action Fund.

Planned Parenthood Action Fund (PPAF) is the advocacy and political arm of Planned Parenthood, fighting to advance and expand access to sexual health care and defend reproductive rights. PPAF is a 501(c)(4) organization, and donations are not tax-deductible as a charitable contribution or business expense.

With the devastating news regarding the leaked SCOTUS draft decision, which accurately indicated the imminent overturning of Roe v. Wade, Emily Miller and Colleen Renee Lis, cofounders of Red Mic Repertory Company reached out to Alicia Whavers and Angelle Whavers, cofounders of Unidentified Stages. We decided to officially partner to develop an original play, which we've entitled Destigmatized, comprised of true stories written by our respective company members. We've rallied our company members to perform in these original pieces to benefit Planned Parenthood Action Fund on Friday, August 12, 2022 at 7:30pm, at CDC Theatre in Cranford, NJ.

We will accept suggested Cash donation of $20 at the door or online donations via GoFundMe. We hope you can join us for this Live staged reading! Otherwise, we'd be thrilled to receive any online contributions supporting this cause. (Masks must be worn in the theater at all times)
