Description

Text Me follows a day in the life of 10 diverse women and non-binary female presenting people, depicting their fears, challenges, and barriers they face living in a world made for and catered to men. Although they don’t all know each other, their stories all tie together in an unspoken pact to keep each other safe “Text me when you get home/Text me when you’re on your way/We look out for each other”. Loose Tea Music Theatre in partnership with Suzart Productions developed Text Me from the conversations in our round table discussions with the cast about living in a patriarchal society and violence carried out by men against women. Their stories and passion inspired creative team Alaina Viau (Creator), Samuel Bisson (Composer) and Charlotte Siegel (Librettist).
