<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/21842/20130423/preview-vagina-monologues-at-slu</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Apr 23, 2013) The Vagina Monologues, a celebrated play about female empowerment, will be performed at St. Lawrence University this weekend.  The performances are Friday and Saturday night, 7 pm, in the Winston Room of the Sullivan Student Center.  This year marks the 15th anniversary of V-Day Campaign, a national movement to end violence against girls and women. V-Season was inspired by the play, which debuted in New York City in 1996, and includes a wide variety of events, from local theatrical productions to film screenings and workshops.Written by Eve Ensler, The Vagina Monologues is noted for its central literary device: a series of actors giving solo speeches on topics such as sex, love, rape, menstruation, female genital mutilation, masturbation, birth and orgasm.   The monologues are based on interviews Ensler conducted with more than 200 women.   Todd Moe talks with Haley Feickert and Anne Clements, co-producers of the St. Lawrence University performances.  The local cast includes 16 women of varying ages and backgrounds.
