She Has A Name | A Play in Two Acts

Visit the Official She Has A Name Website

There are 27 million slaves in the world.  Experts estimate nearly 1 million people are trafficked every year into some facet of the sex trade.  Human trafficking is the fastest growing criminal trade, second only to the illegal sale of drugs, with an estimted annual profit of over 31 billion US dollars.

The statistics are staggering.  Yet it is important to remember that each person caught in slavery has a story – a story that will likely go unheard. Help us bring an important story to life.

Burnt Thicket Theatre in partnership with Raise Their Voice Against Injustice proudly Present the World Premiere of She Has A Name, a play by Andrew Kooman

Advance Praise:

:: Winner of the SAW / Alberta Playwright Network Award in 2009

:: She Has A Name provides candid and authentic insight into human trafficking in South East Asia.  The content of this play will make you feel uncomfortable, upset and enraged.  As a young lawyer working in Cambodia, She Has A Name inspired me even more to dedicate my life to the thousands of children who are trafficked every year.
