Clearfield – One Community Players is proud to present a special dinner theater performance of Eve Ensler’s groundbreaking play “The Vagina Monologues” on May 31 at 5 p.m. at the St. Charles Cafe.
Ensler wrote the first draft of the monologues in 1996 (there have been several revisions since) following interviews she conducted with 200 women about their views on sex, relationships, and violence against women.
The interviews began as casual conversations with her friends, who then brought up anecdotes they themselves had been told by other friends; this began a continuing chain of referrals that led Ensler to interview women from all walks of life.
“The Vagina Monologues” has since become a global phenomenon, inspiring women worldwide to share their stories and raise awareness about the struggles many face. The play’s poignant, humorous, and thought-provoking vignettes give voice to experiences that are too often silenced or marginalized.
“We’re honored to bring this powerful and impactful production to our community,” said Julie Tobias artistic director of One Community Players. “Eve Ensler’s words have the ability to transform, heal, and unite. This performance will be a meaningful and memorable experience for all who attend.”
Tickets for the May 31st dinner theater performance are $25 and include a choice of beef stroganoff, chicken tetrazzini, or a vegetarian meal.
