Oakton Presents 'Vagina Monologues'
Performing Arts at Oakton joins the fight to curb violence against women and girls with three special performances of Eve Ensler's acclaimed "The Vagina Monologues," Thursday, Feb. 10, through Saturday, Feb. 12, on Oakton's main stage at 1600 E. Golf Road, Des Plaines. All proceeds from these performances go to local organizations that combat violence toward women.
For the first time, Oakton's production of "The Vagina Monologues" is being directed by a man, Michael Ryczek, a veteran of Lookingglass Theater Company, among others.
Ensler, founder of the V-Day global movement, encourages performances of her Obie Award-winning play to raise funds for organizations that work to stop violence against women. Based on interviews with women from around the world, the play explores everything from the intimate to the hilarious while delving into its subjects' deepest secrets and fantasies.
Performances are scheduled at 8 p.m. Feb. 10, 11, and 12. Tickets are $17 for general admission and $14 for students and seniors, and may be purchased by calling the Oakton Community College Box Office at 847-635-1900.
