Photo Flash: First Look at Sara Perry, Kahla Tisdale Katie Wenzel & More in OSU's GOOD KIDS

By: Oct. 22, 2015

Commissioned by the theatre departments of the Big Ten universities, Good Kids, by Naomi Iizuka, is loosely based on the events of the 2012 Steubenville, Ohio, rape case. The play asks, "How can this happen? What fosters a culture where sexual assault is prevalent? And how has social media effected culpability?" A candid look at sexual assault on college campuses, Good Kids will keep the conversation going long after the play has ended. Check out a first look at the production below!

Started in spring 2014, the Big Ten Theatre Consortium's New Play Initiative commissions, produces and publicizes a series of new plays by female playwrights, each of which include several significant roles for college-aged women. The first commission went to Naomi Iizuka, head of playwrighting at the University of California-San Diego. The University of Michigan was the first in the consortium to perform the play in Oct. 2014.
