Posted This Week Only: The Vagina Monologues at McCallum to Austinist
This Wednesday through Sunday only at the
McCallum Fine Arts Theatre, Blue Phoenix Theatre will host five evenings and one matinee of music and theatre to raise funds for
OperationOF. Every night at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m., a local musician will play a short set, followed by a performance of Eve Ensler's
The Vagina Monologues, featuring the lauded and lovely actresses
AndreĆ” Smith,
Jennifer Underwood, and
Julie Wright. 100% of the proceeds benefit OperationOF, a local organization founded by
Seth Cochran to raise awareness and provide aid to women worldwide who suffer from obstetric fistula, "the most devastating problem you've never heard of." We sat down with the actresses and director Karen Jambon to talk a bit more about this production.
