MARLBORO — Marlboro College presents a reading of Eve Ensler's “The Vagina Monologues” Saturday, March 2, at 8 p.m. in Ragle Hall at the Serkin Center for the Performing Arts.
The event, part of the global V-Day campaign that works to end gender-based violence and female disempowerment, features members of the Marlboro College and town communities.
The reading benefits the Women's Freedom Center in Brattleboro (www.womensfreedomcenter.net), a nonprofit, feminist organization committed to offering support and advocacy to survivors of violence.
More than 5,800 V-Day benefits took place in 2012, organizers say, and educated millions of people about the reality of violence against women and girls.
Each of the monologues in the performance deals with an aspect of the feminine experience, from the personal to the sociological.
