Join Tight Lipped for an experimental play about chronic vulvovaginal pain. Follow Chloe, a young student in New York City, as she struggles to get medical care, date in modern hook-up culture, and navigate ableism and homophobia around her condition. Created in the method of Forum theater and Theater of the Oppressed, this play is told in three scenes, including interactions with Chloe’s OB-GYN, her romantic partner, and her circle of friends. Following the conclusion of the play, audience members are invited to step into the protagonist’s role and practice combatting Chloe’s oppressive characters to redefine her reality.

An intimacy coordinator will be present at performances.
