About this Event
VAGINA.
Say it out loud.
Scream it.
VAGINA!
How does that make you feel…liberated, uncomfortable, curious, disgusted?
Good.
We live in a world that teaches people — especially women — that vaginas are something to hide, soften, sanitize, or feel ashamed of. A world that labels bodies as too much, too loud, too graphic, too offensive. This production refuses that silence.
Galen Mae Productions’ interpretation of The Vagina Monologues is not interested in neatness, politeness, or comfort. It is interested in pressure. In repetition. In saying the word again and again until it stops being shocking—and then continuing until it becomes powerful. Until it becomes ordinary. Until it becomes beautiful. Until it becomes dangerous again.
This is not political correctness for the sake of approval. This is confrontation. This is offense as a tool. This is self-awareness pushed so far it fractures into liberation. How many times can we say vagina before it loses its sting? How many more times before it becomes synonymous with freedom, autonomy, and womanhood? And how many times after that before the world finally begins to change?
This production pulls language back into the body. The words bleed, laugh, moan, and rupture onstage. Text is delivered sharply and unapologetically, demanding the audience listen not just to what is being said, but how it is said. Ballet is incorporated as a central physical language, revealing how women are trained to hold impossible shapes: to be graceful, controlled, and small. Here, those lines break. The dancers embody what language cannot contain, allowing the body to betray, resist, and reveal.
The tone is overt, unflinching, and at times sexually forward. Audiences are not meant to leave comfortable. They are meant to leave changed, disturbed, moved, angered, and awakened.
Silence has long been the world’s favorite instrument. We are here to break it, screaming, whispering, weeping, moaning, and dancing.
We gather because the body has always been choreographed by power.
We gather because we refuse that choreography.
We gather because we can.
