V-Day at Fredonia presented its annual show, “The Vagina Monologues,” once again in the Williams Center Multipurpose Room. With the proceeds going towards the V-Day campaign and Anew Center in Jamestown, it was an experience most people won’t forget.

The Vagina Monologues is a series of interviews by Eve Ensler about women of different ages, ethnicities and socioeconomic backgrounds. The interviewees spoke about self love, self hate, rape, sexual assault, domestic violence, love, etc. Since its debut in 1996, it’s been translated into 24 different languages and performed in a series of venues and colleges — one of them being Fredonia.

Now a Fredonia tradition, each performance has given the audience a thought-provoking experience. For first-timers, “The Vagina Monologues” was either something that shocked them or enlightened them on what many women around the globe have to go through.
