 A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer:Writings To Stop Violence Against Women and Girls, is a groundbreaking collection of monologues by world-renowned authors and playwrights, edited by Eve Ensler and Mollie Doyle and commissioned by V-Day for the first V-Day: UNTIL THE VIOLENCE STOPS festival, which took place June 2006 in New York City.   The writings are inspired, funny, angry, heartfelt, tragic, and beautiful. But above all, together they create a true and profound portrait of how violence against women affects every one of us. A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant, And A Prayer are a call to the world to demand an end to violence against women. All proceeds from the book benefit V-Day.

A Silent Auction with fabulous original art in many forms, plus jewelry and gift certificates and a reception will be taking place before and after each performance.

All proceeds benefit our local beneficiary- YWCA of Bethlehem and our global V-Day Beneficiary- the Women and Girls of Haiti.

Organizer: Angela Sinkler
