V-DAY SAN DIEGO 2012
"The Vagina Monologues" by Eve Ensler & "The MENding Monologues" by Derek Dujardin
What is V-Day?
V-Day is a global activist movement to end violence against women and girls. V-Day is a catalyst that promotes creative events to increase awareness, raise money, and revitalize the spirit of existing anti-violence organizations. V-Day generates broader attention for the fight to stop violence against women and girls, including rape, battery, incest, female genital mutilation (FGM), and sex slavery.
The V-Day movement is growing at a rapid pace throughout the world, in 140 countries from Europe to Asia, Africa and the Caribbean and all of North America. V-Day, a non-profit corporation, distributes funds to grassroots, national and international organizations and programs that work to stop violence against women and girls. In 2001, V-Day was named one of Worth Magazine's "100 Best Charities," in 2006 one of Marie Claire Magazine's Top Ten Charities, and in 2010 was named as one of the Top-Rated organizations on GreatNonprofits. In eleven years, the V-Day movement has raised over $85 million.
What is "The MENding Monologues"?
Inspired by The Vagina Monologues, this 90-minute show explores gender violence issues from a male perspective.
"I would like to start a movement of male artists, performers and writers doing their own shows, writing their own monologues, and having them build on what we have started. Once men get present to the real cost of violence in their own lives via the abuse and violence that's been done to their sisters, mothers, daughters, friends, wives, and lovers, then maybe we will see some real grassroots action to curb abuse, led by strong male voices. In my opinion, that's what is missing for men: personal relevance to violence. Making that connection between the heart and the head is what The MENding Monologues is all about." – Derek Dujardin
This show is a collection of stories written and performed by the men telling them. WE ARE LOOKING FOR WRITERS AND ACTORS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS PIECE. Please come with your creative ideas and a willingness to discuss ways in which you can be part of a positive solution to ending violence in our communities. |
