February 17 & 18: “Vagina Monologues” draws attention to women’s vulnerability to violence

The award-winning play “Vagina Monologues” is based on interviews with more than 200 women. With humor and grace the piece celebrates women’s sexuality and strength. Through this play and the liberation of this one word, countless women throughout the world have taken control of their bodies and their lives. For more than twelve years, The Vagina Monologues has given voice to experiences and feelings not previously exposed in public. This year’s show is a collaboration of the IU School of Law’s Feminist Law Society and the IU School of Medicine’s American Women’s Medical Association. Proceeds go to Legacy House, a free-counseling service for those affected by violence (http://www.legacy-house.org/) and 10% of proceeds go toward the National V-day campaign. The 2012 spotlight is on the Women and Girls of Haiti.
