Written and directed by Lauren Rayner, MENDACITY takes you deep inside the mind of a splintering personality, peppered with dark humor and wrought with self-loathing and denial over sexual assault. Join us in a rebellious journey of fragmented transcendence and the offering of hope. MENDACITY is pleased to donate 100% of the proceeds from their performances to RAINN.
According to the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), about 80% of rape cases in the United States are women aged 24 and under, and that statistic becomes even more staggering when we realize that most sexual assaults of young women go unreported out of fear, disgust, shame, and denial.
During a February 22nd feature in The Huffington Post, columnist Jill Di Donato investigated the creation of the production and heralds MENDACITY'S "compassion, passion, vulnerability, openness and intensity." www.huffingtonpost.com
MENDACITY brings together a team of 15 creative collaborators and integrates dynamic multi-media techniques, including mind-blowing video projections by Jay Kilachand, an original soundscape designed by Jake Hull (of the band Momentary Prophets) with gestural choreography by Shiloh Goodin and a vibrant lighting design by Tony Lepore. The piece is performed by Ali Kresch.100% of Proceeds Benefit RAINN
