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.”

Winner of the Obie Award. “If Ms. Ensler is the messiah heralding the second wave of feminism, and a lot of people think she is, it is partly because she is a brilliant comedian, The audience was overwhelmingly adoring.” -NY Times. “The most exhilarating part is, no kidding, her extremely virtuosic way with a series of orgasmic moans, Ensler, a writer-performer with a good-natured but seriously evangelical mission about this body part, must be enjoying her success in getting the word out on such a legendarily unmentionable, mythologized and misunderstood fact of life” -NY Newsday. “Ensler breaks taboos by talking, talking and talking some more, stripping fear and shame from what she celebrates here. It makes for quite a party. Funny, outrageous, emotionally affecting, and occasionally angry, THE VAGINA MONOLGOUES confront words to demystify and disarm them. In so doing, Ensler disarms the audience too.”
