Comedy duo presents sexual assault awareness

Central Wyoming College hosts Sex Signals, a comedy duo that presents a sexual assault awareness program in a light-hearted way Thursday, March 11 at 7:30 p.m. in the Robert A. Peck Arts Center.

The two-person troupe combines improvisational comedy, education and audience participation to take a look at the provocative issues surrounding dating, sex, and the core issue of consent. The 90-minute play takes an irreverent look at the awkwardness of dating as the actors represent each gender’s perspective.

Sponsored by the CWC Student Senate and Activities Department, Sex Signals uses humor and explores mixed messages, gender role stereotypes and unrealistic fantasies that contribute to the misunderstandings between the sexes.

The show has been performed at more than 400 colleges and universities and engages students in a candid discussion as they are challenged to provide solutions that will better improve communications in interpersonal relationships.

The program is free and open to the public, but parents are advised that content may be racy and inappropriate for young children. For more information, contact Activities Coordinator Brittany Yeates at 855-2260.
