Remember the stage play tittle that caused a lot of
controversy few years ago? Vagina Monologues (V-Monologues for short) is back.  The V-Monologues is a play made of different
monologues, each dealing with various aspects of feminine experience, read by
different women.

Bebeakinboade.com gathered that the play will have a Nigerian
identity because they are using real stories submitted by everyday Nigerian
women.

Bimbo Akintola

The Nigerian version of the international stage
production will tell the story of Nigerian woman and their fight against
violence.

The Monologues will touch on everything from child
abuse, to widowhood, to physical abuse.

the play  include: Kate Henshaw, Funmi
Iyanda, Stella Damasus, Yinka Davies, Bimbo Akintola, Omonor Imobhio, Ashinoye
and Tunde Aladese

similar to the original directed by Eve Ensler in New York.
