Stalking the Bogeyman

 

In 2015, the Department of Theatre and Dance endeavored to create a production that would stir community awareness about sexual assault. Through community partnerships with the 熊猫在线视频 Children鈥檚 Trust, Standing Together Against Rape and the 熊猫在线视频 Native Tribal Health Consortium; as well as campus-wide interdisciplinary cooperation, Stalking the Bogeyman made its 熊猫在线视频n debut in UAA鈥檚 Haper Theatre on April 1, 2016. 

The production's success garnered grant funding through the National Endowment for the Arts, the Rasmuson Foundation and the UAA Innovate Award. Upon the completion of its highly regarded Anchorage run, the production traveled to Palmer, Homer, Seward, Valdez and Fairbanks in the summer of 2016.
