THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES to Close Magnolia Productions' Second Season
Eve Ensler's work will be directed by Anne Kaufman for the women-focused company.
On June 12, Magnolia Productions will present the Vagina Monologues by Eve Ensler. The play features monologues with a variety of topics affecting the female body. Some are humorous and lighthearted, others tell stories of abuse and atrocities committed against women. The cast features 13 actresses of diverse backgrounds telling the stories of hundreds of women.
"It's wild that even in 2026, this is still considered a taboo subject," said board member and co-director Anne Kaufman. "This play gives audiences--women in particular--the chance to connect to each other and to the community that shares these experiences. That's what community theater is, and should be about."
For this show's community outreach, Magnolia Productions is hosting a donation drive for The She Shed of the Bayshore area. They are asking all audience members to make a donation of new, sealed feminine hygiene products. At the end of the show's run, all of the donations will be given to The She Shed to help women in our area who are in need.
The Vagina Monologues runs June 12-20 with performances Friday and Saturday nights at 7:30, plus 2 PM on Saturdays, at The Theater at the Navesink Library.
