The Vagina Monologues, written by Eve Ensler
An Obie Award-winning whirlwind tour of a forbidden zone, THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES introduces a wildly divergent gathering of female voices, including a six-year-old girl, a septuagenarian New Yorker, a vagina workshop participant, a woman who witnesses the birth of her granddaughter, a Bosnian survivor of rape, and a feminist happy to have found a man who "liked to look at it.
The MENding Monologues, conceived by Derek Dujardin
Inspired by The Vagina Monologues, this 90-minute show explores gender violence issues from a male perspective. Using true, first-person monologues, sketch comedy and hard-hitting slam poetry, we take our audience on an emotional and educational roller-coaster ride through relationship and gender issues to create a healing, “theatrepuetic” experience.
Tickets will be available soon!

Wriiten by Young Jean Lee Directed by Kym Pappas SAN DIEGO PREMIERE!
Produced in association with Dramatists Play Service
Acclaimed playwright and director Young Jean Lee transforms her life-long struggle with Christianity into an exuberant church service. Both celebratory and confrontational, CHURCH will test the expectations of religious and non-religious alike—looking deep into why we believe what we believe.
