IT GETS BETTER Project Comes to the Moore, Beginning 2/18
The It Gets Better theater project is described as the upbeat, exciting, and funny narrative and musical that includes moments of pain and pathos from the "It Gets Better" you tube videos and project, started by Seattle's Dan Savage. The work explores what "better" means for LGBT youth through stories, songs and multimedia on an array of challenging themes. With its unqualified support of all young people, It Gets Better creates and unites allies in solidarity against the pervasive (and growing) climate of bullying and teen violence.
