FIRST PUBLIC READING OF NEW PLAY BY ANITA YELLIN SIMONS

Every 6 Minutes tells the fictional story of Annie Cummings, a college
student in Ohio, who innocently unravels the story of two young female
soldiers who were raped and allegedly committed suicide in Iraq in 2007.
Annie also learns to come to terms with the fact that she herself was
date raped and through a series of bizarre circumstances realizes that
she is the best person to tell their story. In the process, we learn
what happens to many women both in and out of the military in regard to
sexual assault.
