VDAY
By Eve Ensler
Directed by Julie Jordan Scott
V-Day is a global movement to stop violence against women and girls. Special performances of The Vagina Monologues are used to help raise money to benefit female victims of violence and sexual abuse. In just ten years, V-Day has raised over $50 million, educated millions about the issue of violence against women and the efforts to end it, crafted international educational, media and PSA campaigns, launched the Karama movement in the Middle East, reopened shelters, and funded over 5000 community-based anti-violence programs and safe houses in Kenya, South Dakota, Haiti, Democratic Republic of Congo, Egypt and Iraq.
The Empty Space has participated in the Worldwide Campaign for the past four years and raised over $14,000.00 for our own local organization, The Alliance Against Family Violence and Sexual Assault. The V-DAY weekend includes two performances of Eve Ensler's The Vagina Monologues, which, based on the stories of real women, provides a touching, funny, and honest look at having a vagina.
Performances are February 29 and March 1 at 8:00pm.
Tickets are $20 each (remember, proceeds go to a GREAT cause!)
