Centre for Women’s Studies in Education presents The Vagina Monologues

March 3, 2011

TORONTO, ON – OISE’s Cen­tre for Women’s Stud­ies in Edu­ca­tion presents The Vagi­na Mono­logues on March 8 for Inter­na­tion­al Women’s Day. The mul­ti­ple-award win­ning play by Eve Ensler boasts a stel­lar cast of 33 diverse, tal­ent­ed, and dynam­ic women. The Vagi­na Mono­logues is a pow­er­ful col­lec­tion of anec­dotes cel­e­brat­ing all things fem­i­nine – part ther­a­py, part infor­ma­tive, and whol­ly elec­tri­fy­ing. All pro­ceeds from tick­ets, $15 at the door, will go to Nellie’s, a non-prof­it orga­ni­za­tion pro­vid­ing shel­ter for over 13,000 women and chil­dren since 1973.
