The Manhattan Theater Club and the Off Broadway Play “Ruined”
have provided a platform for the women of the Congo to share
with the global community the nature of the conflict in the
Congo, its impact on Congolese women and how each and every
one of us can play a role in bringing an end to the unnecessary
suffering of the women of the Congo.
Congolese women will participate in a forum hosted by Congo
Global Action, Friends of the Congo and Ellen Stone Belic
Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and
Media, Columbia College Chicago on Sunday, June 14,
2009 following the production of the Pulitzer winning
play “Ruined.” The June 14th production of “Ruined”
is a benefit fundraiser in support of the work of Friends
of the Congo and Congo Global Action whereby proceeds from
the sale of tickets will go to support the work of these two
organizations with women in the Congo.
