Auditions for our 2013 production of The Vagina Monologues will be held on Sunday, March 10th from 6-9pm at the offices of UNIDOS Against Domestic Violence in Madison, WI.
This year we will be presenting a bi-lingual, reader’s theatre production to benefit UNIDOS.
We are looking for both Spanish and English speakers for this production! No previous acting experience is necessary.
Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script – a prepared audition is not necessary or required.
90% of all proceeds from our 2013 production will benefit UNIDOS Against Domestic Violence, and 10% will benefit the V-Day Organization’s One Billion Rising Campaign. UNIDOS’ mission is to provide a bridge to a safe environment through assessment, direct support, referral, education, training and collaboration to break the cycle of domestic violence in Latino communities, one family at a time.
Rehearsals will begin on March 24th – with a total of ten rehearsals and ending with three performances on Saturday, April 27th at 2pm and 7:30pm, and Sunday, April 28th at 2pm at the Brink Lounge.

The Vagina Monologues were written and created by Eve Ensler, co-founder of the V-Day Organization, after she interviewed over 200 women from all over the world. This show is a series of monologues based on these interviews and other women’s stories of their sexuality, giving voice to experiences and feelings not previously exposed in public. With humor and grace, each piece celebrates women’s sexuality and strength.
We will be performing in April as it has been designated Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) in the United States; to raise public awareness about sexual violence and to educate communities and individuals on how to prevent sexual violence. The performances will be done in the style of reader’s theatre, and acting experience is not necessary to be a part of this production.
