17-18th January 2020
Using performing arts as a way to bring awareness to various social issues, Jakarta Youth for Performing Arts (JYPA) presents “Carrie”, a drama musical. The venue will be Gedung Kesenian Jakarta. Since their earlier productions, JYPA is a youth-led theatre community who’ve used their voice to advocate awareness for mental health. With the upcoming production of “Carrie: The Musical,” which will be held 17th and 18th January 2020 at Gedung Kesenian Jakarta, JYPA aims to shine a light on the issue of domestic violence, and how it is handled in Indonesia. Taken from the novel Carrie, written by Stephen King, this musical tells the story of Carrie White, a young girl whose mother, Margaret White, imposes trauma on her through verbal and physical violence.
