Winner of the Obie Award. “If Ms. Ensler is the messiah heralding the second wave of feminism, and a lot of people think she is, it is partly because she’s a brilliant comedian…The audience…was overwhelmingly adoring.” —NY Times. “The most exhilarating part is, no kidding, her extremely virtuosic way with a series of orgasmic moans … Ensler, a writer-performer with a good-natured but seriously evangelical mission about this body part, must be enjoying her success in getting the word out on such a legendarily unmentionable, mythologized and misunderstood fact of life…” —NY Newsday. “Ensler breaks taboos by talking, talking and talking some more—stripping fear and shame from what she celebrates here. It makes for quite a party. Funny, outrageous, emotionally affecting, and occasionally angry … THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES confront words to demystify and disarm them. In so doing, Ensler disarms the audience too.” — Associated Press.

Twelfth Night
by William Shakespeare

Produced by Maureen Rogers

Location: Laurel Mill Playhouse

Tuesday January 5, 2016 through Sunday January 31, 2016

First performance will be on Twelfth Night, Tuesday January 5th. After that, the show will run on weekends only

Twelfth Night, or What You Will is a comedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written around 1601–02 as a Twelfth Night’s entertainment for the close of the Christmas season. The play centers on the twins Viola and Sebastian, who are separated in a shipwreck. Viola (who is disguised as a boy) falls in love with Duke Orsino, who in turn is in love with the Countess Olivia. Upon meeting Viola, Countess Olivia falls in love with her thinking she is a man. The play expanded on the musical interludes and riotous disorder expected of the occasion, with plot elements drawn from the short story “Of Apollonius and Silla” by Barnabe Rich, based on a story by Matteo Bandello. The first recorded performance was on 2 February 1602, at Candlemas, the formal end of Christmastide in the year’s calendar.

Performances run weekends from Tuesday January 5, 2016 through Sunday January 31, 2016 with Friday and Saturday evening performances at 8 p.m. Tickets are $20 for general admission.
