Trinity Students to Stage Benefit Production of “The Vagina Monologues”

April 15, 2003 – As part of a celebration of women’s history, a group of Trinity University students will perform “The Vagina Monologues: Vaginas with a Twist” as a benefit for a San Antonio charity.  The event will take place at 8 p.m. on Friday, April 25, through Sunday, April 27, at the Ruth Taylor Concert Hall.  Tickets are $7 for general admission and $5 for students.

For this production of “The Vagina Monologues,” students will include poetry by Marge Piercy, Anne Sexton, Maya Angelou, and Audre Lorde.  A number of student-written monologues as well as a male ensemble that will talk about women from a man’s perspective will enhance the production.  The student performers have also added music including an all-woman jazz vocal number at the end of the show.

Money raised from the production will be donated to a charity to be determined at a later date.  Last year’s student production of “The Vagina Monologues” benefited the Battered Women’s Shelter of Bexar County.

The production of the “Vagina Monologues: Vaginas with a Twist” is sponsored by the Trinity Women's History Month Committee and the Women and Gender Studies Planning Committee. For tickets and more information, call (210) 999-4591.
