USML Professor Comments on THE SCRIPT...
From Professor Kristin Carbon-Lopez, UMSL, regarding
THE SCRIPT:
"I thought the show was excellent and so compelling. I really think the key to addressing these issues (dating violence, bullying and sexual violence) is to stop telling victims how to prevent the violence, but instead appeal to the would-be offenders. Honestly, the more I learn about masculinity and our society, the happier I am not to be a man! It’s so difficult, but yet we can change it. Your show is an excellent way to do so.
Theater is a very powerful tool to disseminate this information – and your shows have a direct and utterly honest approach that I think men (and women) can understand. And, you are a fabulous actor!"

STUDENTS COMMENT ON "THE SCRIPT"
"I thought the show was awesome. Tim did such a great job of choosing the most relatable characters to get his message out there in the best way he could, in a way that would really get people to start thinking about the things they do and how they think about women. I think it takes a lot of courage to get up in front of a large crowd & act that out & I feel privileged to have seen the show. It made me want to respect myself more than I already do. Thank you so much."

* 1/2 of teen girls with prior relationship experience report being victims of verbal, physical, or sexual abuse
* 1 in 5 American tweens who have been in a relationship reported knowing a friend who had been struck in anger by a boyfriend or girlfriend

More St. Louis U. Students share their thoughts about The Script...
"The show was amazing. It was very real and it showed topics that not many people hear about but what alot of people/youth need to hear.
The show wasn't just saying "rape is wrong," but it gave a great account of each character and how the rape of their friend effected them.
The Script is Great Great Great!"
--Sasha, SLU Student

SLU STUDENTS SHARE THEIR THOUGHTS...
More thoughtful feedback from Saint Louis University Students about The Script...
"I absolutely loved the show! It was witty and well-played. All of the characters were so well developed and had such depth that I could relate to each of them.
The relatable nature of the show really made it effective for me. The statistics from the websites and the shock that the character "Jay" felt when reading them to the audience was eye-opening.
I think The Script is so great because it can reach so many different groups of people from all backgrounds.
You were truly impressive! Continue with your mission--you're doing great work!"
--Erin R., SLU Student
"The show was very moving, lots of enthusiasm. I feel that the show impacted myself in that these issues occur more than what we are made aware of, and the show made me aware of action that we portray verbally and physically.
It was interesting to see the different male characters. I could relate to men I know who act just like the people you played. I felt that it was good to express how some men view women as objects and not people.
Great show!"
--Red, SLU Student

THE SCRIPT at Saint Louis University!
March 9th--
The Script returned to Saint Louis with a performance at Saint Louis University!
Here's some of the thoughts and insights that students in the attendance had to share about The Script:
"I thought it was fabulous. As a woman, it was interesting to see a side of guys that most of the time women don't see....I loved the character "Chris," and what Chris said about how he didn't fit into the "box people tried to put him in"...but how could anyone define who you are, when we are still trying to find ourselves, everyday? It was so helpful that we were able to relate to the boys in the show...the ending of the show was perfect!"
--K.C., SLU Student
"It was great. Really, The Script is a personal, true testimony to the commonality of violence against women and the great need for advocacy, especially from the young men and women to whom these stories belong....each character in the show was unique, yet entirely relateable and recognizable...I have a great interest in youth in the criminal justice system and I see this show as a great source of hope for their rehabilitation and reintegration into society."
--Laura Childs, SLU Student
Tim is working with SLU professor Dr. Dorcas McLaughlin as she teaches a class on Violence in Family Systems. Dr. McLaughlin was generous enough to include The Script into the class curriculum. We'll be posting more comments from the SLU show over the next few days...and check back here soon for more tour dates, video clips from the show, and more!

Educators Comment on The Script
Thoughts about The Script from Christina Meneses, Sexual Violence Educator with the St. Louis Regional Sexual Assault Center:
"As a person who educates the community about rape, I see that The Script is able to engage people in a radically different way than most rape education, and even most plays of this nature. It's a perfect blend of information and emotion, head and heart, and shows many of the real struggles that men have in dealing with the issue of rape. The vast majority of men aren't rapists, and yet many men are affected by the issue. Tim does a great job exploring the lives of men who surround survivors as friends, partners and ex-partners, and bystanders."
