“The Vagina Monologues” is a thought-provoking piece of comedy that tickles your inner sexuality and strength. The award-winning play is based on V-Day Founder/playwright Eve Ensler’s interviews with more than 200 women. Through this play and the liberation of this one word, countless women throughout the world have taken control of their bodies and their lives. Translated into over 48 languages and performed in over 140 countries, including sold-out runs at both Off-Broadway’s Westside Theater and on London’s West End (2002 Olivier Award nomination, Best Entertainment), “The Vagina Monologues” has been running for almost 15 years.

“A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer” will dance with your perception of life and change the way you interact with the world within the first 10 minutes (promise!). It is also created by the Tony Award winning Playwright, performer, and activist Eve Ensler. It is a groundbreaking collection of monologues by world-renowned authors and playwrights including Edward Albee, Maya Angelou, Michael Cunningham, Dave Eggers, Edwidge Danticat, Carol Gilligan, Susan Miller, Sharon Olds, Patricia Bosworth, Jane Fonda and many many more.
