American playwright Eve Ensler’s award-winning play “The Vagina Monologues” has been performed all over the globe, with A-list women celebrities in the cast.  It redefines how women and men alike read the word “vagina.” The monologues are primarily based on interviews conducted by Ensler with women, tackling about the most private part of their body.

NVC’s production of “The Vagina Monologues” has been repeatedly performed in Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong and in the Philippines.
