The statistics are stunning: according to the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network, almost 240,000 Americans age 12 and older are sexually assaulted each year. This means that someone you know has probably survived such an attack—and has had to pick up the pieces and keep going after it happened. That’s a pretty amazing feat, especially when you consider the type of damage done to survivors of sexual assault. Broken–The Musical tackles just that thing: the strength of the human spirit and its ability to overcome even the most destructive of events. It tells the story of Mona, and follows her path to justice and her quest to put her life back together after her rape. The unique production blends original music by Aaron Fryklund with a script by Monica Martino and will be staged in the Lone Star Room at Gilley’s Dallas, 1135 South Lamar. See it at 7:30 p.m. Thursday or any Tuesday through Sunday until August 17; check brokenthemusical.com for show times and to purchase tickets, which range from $27.50 to $49.50.
Tuesdays-Sundays, 7:30 p.m. Starts: July 31. Continues through Aug. 17, 2014
