Vagina Monologues deliver touching show

Interested in truly celebrating an anti-Valentine's Day this year? Well, there may be no better place for those against commercialized romanticism and repressed heterosexuality than at a performance of The Vagina Monologues in the McMurtry College Commons this weekend. This year's production, co-directed by Wiess College junior Jocelyn Wright and Wiess sophomore Matt Banks, fits the bill nicely. An unabashed tribute to sex, the female experience and reproductive anatomy, that enigma to men and women alike, The Vagina Monologues strings together a series of powerful stories with a good deal of humor and insight to create an altogether enjoyable show.
