“The Vagina Monologues” on campus for two performances, Feb. 19

“The Vagina Monologues,” an award-winning series of soliloquies originally written and performed by playwright Eve Ensler, will be performed at 2 p.m. and 5 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 19 in Whitley Auditorium on the Elon University campus. The performances are sponsored by the Women’s/Gender Studies Program.

“The Vagina Monologues” is based on interviews with women of different ages, nationalities, ethnicities and circumstances. The monologues, which celebrate the joy and occasional despair of being a woman, will be performed by Elon students.

Tickets are $5 and will be on sale the week of the performance in Moseley Center on campus, at the door before the performances. Proceeds will benefit CrossRoads Sexual Assault Response and Resource Center in Burlington.
