<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.

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.
