A MEMORY, A MONOLOGUE, A RANT AND A PRAYER
ONLINE TICKET SALES have ended! Tickets to the 2:30pm show on April 12th can be purchased at the door. Thanks for your support!
This special benefit performance is presented this year as part of V-Day's campaign ONE BILLION RISING: REVOLUTION, a global initiative that began two years ago as a call for women survivors of violence to Rise and demand an end to violence. In 2015, Risings will focus on highlighting, creating and envisioning new, brave and radical artistic initiatives to bring in the new revolutionary world of equality, dignity and freedom for all women and girls.
A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer: Writings To Stop Violence Against Women and Girls, is a groundbreaking collection of monologues by world-renowned authors and playwrights, edited by Eve Ensler and Mollie Doyle and commissioned by V-Day for the first V-Day: UNTIL THE VIOLENCE STOPS festival, which took place June 2006 in New York City. Proceeds from the book benefit V-Day.
These diverse voices rise up in a collective roar to break open, expose, and examine the insidiousness of violence at all levels: brutality, neglect, a punch, even a put-down.
These writings are inspired, funny, angry, heartfelt, tragic, and beautiful. But above all, together they create a true and profound portrait of how violence against women affects every one of us. A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant, And A Prayer is a call to the world to demand an end to violence against women.
This production will benefit a local non-profit committed to preventing and ending relationship violence.
