"A compelling rhapsody of the female essence..

Ultimately Ensler achieves something extraordinary."

"By the end of the show, the audience has moved from slightly embarrassed to highly engaged, sometimes enraged, and ultimately enlarged.  They leave you understanding that a woman is more that sum of her parts, but if some of her parts are unmentionable, she is diminished" - O Magazine

"Spell bounding, funny an almost unbearably moving...It is both a work of art and an incisive piece of cultural history, a poem and a polemic, a performance and a balm and a benediction." - Variety
