A critic of Fort Lewis College’s, “The Vagina Monologues”

Wow. I’m not sure what else to say about “The Vagina Monologues”. Fort Lewis College’s rendition of the nationwide play that present’s stories about women and issues affecting women was amazing. I didn’t really know what to expect, maybe some feminist man hating orgy, or perhaps a politically pitched pro-lesbian piece, or I dunno, a giant talking vagina. Any of those wouldn’t have surprised me, but instead I witnessed a professional, exciting, entertaining and moving play that opened my mind and made me proud of those girls with the guts, skill, and bravery to do what they did last Saturday night.

The Vagina Monologues is made up of about 15 or so short plays, with most based on some woman or girl’s story and each running about 5 minutes long. The pace is moderately fast, but I found it easy to get involved in each act before the next one started.
