INNOCENT FLESH is a new play written and directed by NAACP Winner Kenyetta Lethridge. With both darkness and humor, Lethridge reveals a side of human nature that is often neglected and ignored.
Innocent Flesh is written in a multi-layered style that uses poetry, dance, and a modern take on the classic Greek Chorus to express the many obstacles that underage prostitutes face. Lethridge unveils the secrets of how girls from all walks of life can find themselves on the streets, where they sell their bodies to men. It is performed by a cast of four female actors, whose characters end up in "the life. Their stories deal with love, abandonment, rape, abortion, and molestation. Throughout the play, each character's poignant cry for self-worth seems to fill a bottomless void with love. One by one, their hardened façades melt to reveal soft and vulnerable spirits.
