Columbia School Of The Arts to Present THE GROUP This Month
THE GROUP follows six men in a childhood sexual abuse survivor support group.
Columbia University School of the Arts will present DeAndre Short’s (Columbia MFA Playwriting Candidate 2023) production of THE GROUP.
THE GROUP follows six men in a childhood sexual abuse survivor support group. Over the course of eight weeks, they embark on the healing process with unconventional exercises, puzzles, and LEGO bricks. Digging into their past to mend themselves isn’t easy, but each is held together by the community they create.
*Please note this play contains graphic language and discussions of sexual abuse, suicide, self-harm, and violence.
