Otago

A happy, healthy teenager makes a happy, healthy adult. Help us to reach as many young New Zealanders as possible for 2021!

The Sexwise programme has been running for over 30 years in NZ, and has been helping our future generations to build the confidence they need to embrace their sexuality, to look after their sexual health and to develop loving, healthy relationships - all positive attitudes that will give them a happier future in the long-term.

We do this through performing the story of four friends struggling with growing up in 2021 - sexuality, gender diversity, consent, porn, trust...and then opening the floor to our young audience to discuss the issues, think of solutions and explore consequences safely by integrating their ideas back into selected scenes. No two sessions are the same, as every young person is unique.

We tour annually throughout New Zealand, and prioritise low decile schools and education settings with a high Māori or Pacific Island population - but we only reach a fraction of the rangatahi that would benefit from our programme.

Sexwise is embarking on its longest ever tour for 2021, to try and reach those who missed out due to COVID-19 tour cancellations in 2020. Help us extend our reach.

About us

THETA develop innovative and challenging health education programmes for New Zealand youth, using a blend of theatre performance and interactive workshopping to engage, inform and ultimately improve the health and well being of our future generations.

Use of funds

We want to be able to reach ten more schools over ten days. All funds raised will go towards the cost of keeping the tour on the road, including paying our facilitators, transport and accommodation. Any surplus will extend the tour even further.
