A Safe Place presents The Yellow DressA performance of The Yellow Dress will take place on Wednesday, March 5, 2008 at 7:30 p.m. at the Gorton Community Center located at 400 East Illinois Road in Lake Forest, Illinois. The performance will be followed by a discussion at 8:30 and a dessert reception at 9:00. Angel tickets are $100 per person, Benefactor tickets are $75 per person, and general admission is $50 per person.
The Yellow Dress is a dramatic one-woman play based on the stories of young women who were victims of dating violence. The carefully constructed program stimulates thought-provoking discussion about relationships; a topic important to every young person’s life. In response to a personal tragedy, the family and friends of Deana Brisbois, who was a victim of dating violence, founded Deana's Educational Theater. In 1995 DET launched a breakthrough dating violence prevention original play The Yellow Dress, written by Deborah Lake Fortson and originally produced by Sydney Patten. Deana's Educational Theater acts to prevent relationship violence, and is recognized as an innovative leader in developing and producing comprehensive educational theater programs on relationship violence. DET's highly-regarded programs have been featured on Good Morning America, The Associated Press, Educational Leadership, The Osgood File and many other national, regional and local media outlets.
