Mixed Company Theatre is pleased to present Under Pressure, written by Heather Cherron, which addresses theSTI and HIV transmission rates among youth. This Forum Theatre production explores sexual pressures and consequences from a variety of perspectives as we observe five high school students in their struggles with image and popularity, love and friendship, betrayal and trust.

Under Pressure explores relationship negotiations and encourages high school students to find their own voices in the midst of the complex pressures they face today. Will Sharna lose Terek if she doesn’t have sex with him? Can Terek be trusted? What stops us from listening to our inner voices?
