The Vagina Monologues
An Obie Award-winning whirlwind tour of a forbidden zone, THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES introduces a wildly divergent gathering of female voices, including a six-year-old girl, a septuagenarian New Yorker, a vagina workshop participant, a woman who witnesses the birth of her granddaughter, a Bosnian survivor of rape, and a feminist happy to have found a man who "liked to look at it." The monologues will be performed by various local luminaries from the worlds of politics, theatre, non-profits and much more. Cast to include Elise Blanchard, Actor; Deb Hamilton, writer/performer; Ginger Leopoldo, Arts Educator with CIRCA Pintig; Amber Mandley, Managing Director, PrideArts; Loni T.
