They came more than once, the vaginas!

After a successful run in March, the Vagina Monologues returned on a limited yet hymen-breaking and orgasmic engagement!

Advocating women empowerment, Eve Ensler's award-winning play compiles the various issues and experiences faced by the feminine gender in modern society.

The provocative piece of solo acts is a result of intimate discussions with an eclectic pool of women, ranging from lawyers, teenagers, lesbians, single women, to a septuagenarian, a young girl and even transsexual women. It touches on domestic violence, homosexual encounters, sex and fetishes, discrimination, relationships and fidelity, exploitation and the miracle of birth. With one underlying goal in mind-give women a voice of one.

The one-day-only (matinee and gala) show flocked vagina lovers to the Teatro Casino for another entertaining and very enlightening show. Performers from the previous shows reunited for this Breast Cancer Awareness restaging. Gorgeous gals Meyen Baguio and Micolle Ann Ybanez vocalized possibly every euphonious moan that a woman can create at the height of physical passion. Fresh young face Vanessa Amman joined the cast as the welcoming vagina while R'Love V. Rojas' Angry Vagina left quite a refreshing impression. Lera Lumactod's delivery of He Liked to Look at It-a detailed sexual encounter of a free-spirited young woman, pumped the hormone levels and Chelsea Martin Alcantara reprised her role in the final monologue narrating the author's moving experience with the miracle of birth. Cherrie Lou Mendoza, Trisha Eunice Libres, Anne Marie Villadolid and Heather Cordova completed the ensemble cast.

Once again, turning the show into its entertainment prime is Ensler's latest material "They Beat the Girl Out of My Boy". Presented in a Greek chorus, this segment portrays the many challenges that the alternative sex often solicits from the supposed progressive yet sometimes-discriminating society. "In the end they endure and share the pride of expressing their femininity in one voice united." All clad in designer drag, actors Orly Cajegas, Nell Scarlet Canaya and this writer rocked the house with yet another show-stopping performance.

As always, every female in the audience left the theatre empowered, liberated, confident, daring. And the men? You can't help but notice that palpable profound respect he has gained for his opposite. So ladies, go ahead, celebrate your womanhood, celebrate your vagina! Regardless of however you name it. After all, it is you.
