DESCRIPTION:May 25-27 & June 1-3, 8:30 pm and 9:30 pm both days (each show runs 30 
 mins)\n\nFlyaway Productions presents The Right to be Believed, a site 
 specific dance that explores the right to be believed for women, May 25-27 
 & June 1-3, UC Hastings College of the Law's Outdoor Wall. The Right to be 
 Believed will give spectacular language to a serious sociopolitical issue 
 that has not been carefully examined since Anita Hill challenged Justice 
 Clarence Thomas in 1991.  This site specific dance explores the lack of 
 credibility for women that is simultaneously both a legal, social and 
 economic problem.  \n\nThe project, created by Jo Kreiter, Artistic 
 Director of Flyaway Productions, is inspired by Rebecca Solnit's article of 
 the same topic in the October 2014 issue of Harpers magazine: by 
 unprocessed rape kits too numerous to count; by the statistic asserted in 
 John Krakauer's Missoula that 90 percent of reported rapes do not result in 
 prosecution;  by the rising number of pretextual abortion laws that 
 infantilize and belittle women, while creating serious obstacles to 
 abortion access; and by continuing inequities in work life law, where small 
 differences in how men and women are treated lead to large gaps in wages, 
 promotions and prestige. \n\nThe Right to be Believed will use flight, 
 inversion and a defiance of gravity to subvert limitations, to delight in 
 the body despite unjust constraints, and to claim public space as a proving 
 ground for women to be taken seriously in the nation's collective 
 imagination.\n\nFree\n
