Boise State Holds Auditions For The Vagina Monologues

---

The Boise State Women�s Center will hold auditions for "The Vagina Monologues" Friday-Sunday, Jan. 14-16 in the Student Union Cataldo Room. Directors expect to cast 20-25 women of all ages and ethnicities. Acting experience is not required. Each woman will perform a "cold reading" during a 45-minute audition. Audition times are noon-4 p.m. on Jan. 14, and 10 a.m.-3:15 p.m. on Jan. 15 and 16. To sign up for an audition, contact the Women�s Center at (208) 426-4259. "The Vagina Monologues," a play by Even Ensler, will be performed at 8 p.m. Feb. 24-26 in the Special Events Center. It is based on interviews with more than 200 women and uses women�s own words to explore their views on sexuality and body image. The production is part of the nationwide "V-day" campaign on college and university campuses to end sexual violence against women and proclaim Valentine�s Day as a day to celebrate women and end abuse. This is Boise State�s fifth annual production of "The Vagina Monologues."
