Eve Ensler's - The Vagina Monologues

The 2019 Vagina Monologues – Soda City will be performed at Tapp’s Arts Center with performances at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, February 22 and Saturday, February 23 and a Sunday Matinee on February 24 at 3 p.m.  Tickets are $12 general admission with $10 special pricing for students, seniors and military.  Tickets can be purchased at TappsArtsCenter.com.  A chocolate sale and silent auction will also be held at the event to raise additional funds for STSM.  An hour talkback about the Vagina Monologues and how it has been utilized to amplify and lift up the often unheard and excluded voices of survivors, activists and groups in our communities will take place immediately following the Sunday Matinee performance with the cast and crew.

VDay Soda City is a local effort within the worldwide context of the V Campaign.  VDay first began in 1998, as a global activist movement to end violence against all women and girls (cisgender, transgender, and those who hold fluid identities that are subject to gender based violence). With creativity and determination, V-activists around the world tirelessly work to end harassment, rape, battery, incest, female genital mutilation and sex slavery.  Columbia, South Carolina has been involved with this movement for approximately 17 years through annual performances of The Vagina Monologues that first began within the University of South Carolina and have now extended out to the local arts community.  VDAY SODA CITY is the longest-running local V-DAY Movement/Chapter for Columbia, South Carolina.  For the past six years, proceeds from the performances in Columbia, South Carolina have gone to benefit the work of Sexual Trauma Services of the Midlands.
