“A Day in the Life” has toured cities throughout the US and brings a human face to the commercial sexual exploitation of young people. The powerful and riveting production will serve as a the spring board for the workshop’s agenda including a presentation by survivors of sex trafficking in Hawaii, a panel discussion on the societal and legal issues, and advocacy and resources available to assist victims of sex trafficking. Katie Capiello, the ensemble director, is an award winning theater teacher and play writer who has been honored by the National Women’s Hall of Fame for her work in human trafficking and Project Impact, a leadership-through story telling workshop for youth and adult human trafficking survivors in New York. The production features actors and activist, ages 14-20, who tell the stories of youth survivors. These young activists have been vocal in their communities and schools about this issue and have lobbied alongside survivors in New York to decriminalize and fund programs to help victims of sex trafficking.
