ONLY A FEW WEEKS AWAY




Its hard to believe that just getting back into the swing of a new quarter, our play A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer, is just around the corner...

V-day has done it again! On April 17th and 18th at 8p the same people who brought you The Vagina Monologues will be bringing to OSU's campus its highly anticipated performance: A Memory, a Monologue, a Rant and a Prayer (MMRP)!!!
This event is only $3...Yes, you heard me! Only $3 to raise awareness AND to support local organizations working to end violence against women and girls! Come on down to the Michael E. Moritz Law School Auditorium located at 55 West 12th Avenue for a night of solidarity, women's empowerment, and some damn good monologues! Get your flaming hot tickets at the door, from a cast or crew member or at osuheartstvm@gmail.com All are welcome.


About The Play

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.


Beyond the time constraint of five minutes or less and the theme of women and violence, each monologue was for the writer to realize. No constructs, restrictions, or rules. A fantasy of a world where there is no violence. A poem about the physics of a slap. A memory.

These writings are inspired, funny, angry, heartfelt, tragic, and beautiful. 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.

ABOUT V-DAY:
V-Day is a global movement to end violence against women and girls that raises funds and awareness through benefit productions of Playwright/Founder Eve Ensler's award winning play The Vagina Monologues and other artistic works.

In 2008, more than 3400 V-Day events took place in the U.S. and around the world. To date, the V-Day movement has raised over $60 million and educated millions about the issue of violence against women.
