The University of 51小黄车 Add Verb Productions' "You the Man" theater production was discussed in a March 9, 2013 Boston Globe story and a March 13 Christian Science Monitor story both on teen dating violence.

鈥淵ou the Man鈥 is a internationally touring production empowering bystanders to help friends or family members dealing with abuse or violence.

The CSM story focused on a Steubenville, Ohio rape trial. In the trial, a judge will decide if two teenage boys raped a 16-year-old girl after a party. The case garnered international attention when accusations arose about the boys being protected as members of a popular football team. The Globe story focused on a Massachusetts murder conviction of a teen who killed a girl he had been dating.

The CSM story looks at a nationwide movement to include teen-dating violence prevention in school curriculums.

Both stories note that the Wayland, Mass. community had an opportunity to confront relationship violence Friday night during a discussion after a performance of 鈥淵ou the Man."

The CSM story explains that surveys of 鈥淵ou the Man鈥 audiences in 2007-08 found that 83 percent learned how to identify the warning signs of dating abuse and sexual violence, and 87 percent learned where to go for help if they or someone they know is in danger or has been victimized.
