The Vagina Monologues

When the Vagina Monologues were first mentioned to me, I asked one of my friends what they even were. All she told me was that they were hilarious and that I should go and see for myself what they were all about. I am so glad I went because that was one of the funniest performances I have seen. The actresses were so great at getting into character and really playing the part. The one skit I was very confused about was Hey Miss Pat and I had no idea what exactly it was talking about or how it had anything to do with vaginas other than the fact that she was a female. Although I didn’t get what the message was, the actress, Ehleshea Woodruff, did an excellent job and even shed real tears. The Flood was a great skit because the actress had to play an old woman and referred to her vagina as her “down there” and even a cellar. I had a couple of favorite performances included My Angry Vagina and The Woman Who Loved To Make Vaginas Happy. I thought these two were the most hilarious out of the bunch, and My Angry Vagina was definitely the most relatable since almost every girl has experienced the unpleasantness of a tampon, thong, or a gynecological exam. The impressions of the many different kinds or orgasms had everyone in the crowd rolling with laughter, including myself. I was shocked at some of the facts about the numbers of females and little girls that were being raped or circumcised as a use of warfare around the world. I am glad I went and will definitely recommend seeing it to my friends and family.
