The Pregones Theater in Bronx, NY is featuring an awesome play about dating relationships. Texting 4 Life is a 15 minute play that follows a young couple as they both navigate their relationship through technology. Developed through creative workshops with Bronx middle school students, the play is interactive and allows young audience members help determine the outcome. This allows participants to think critically about dating, the social uses of technology and healthy relationship habits, so pretty much the kind of issues we all deal with in the dating world. Performances are followed by a talk with qualified counselors and peer educators. The Pregones Theater has two performances coming up on February 8th and 19th at 5 p.m., so if you happen to live in the area, be sure to check them out.
