《Vagina Monologues陰道獨白》榮獲美國劇場界最高榮譽「東尼獎」，全球每年演出超過一千次！

《Vagina Monologues陰道獨白》是美國女作家伊芙·恩斯勒所著的戲劇，1996年由作者本人首演於紐約外百老匯，獲1997年奧比獎最佳劇本獎。

"I was worried about vaginas. I was worried about what we think about vaginas, and even more worried that we don't think about them. . . . So I decided to talk to women about their vaginas, to do vagina interviews, which became vagina monologues. I talked with over two hundred women. I talked to old women, young women, married women, single women, lesbians, college professors, actors, corporate professionals, sex workers, African American women, Hispanic women, Asian American women, Native American women, Caucasian women, Jewish women. At first women were reluctant to talk. They were a little shy. But once they got going, you couldn't stop them."

So begins Eve Ensler's hilarious, eye-opening tour into the last frontier, the forbidden zone at the heart of every woman. Adapted from the award-winning one-woman show that's rocked audiences around the world, this groundbreaking book gives voice to a chorus of lusty, outrageous, poignant, and thoroughly human stories, transforming the question mark hovering over the female anatomy into a permanent victory sign. With laughter and compassion, Ensler transports her audiences to a world we've never dared to know, guaranteeing that no one who reads The Vagina Monologues will ever look at a woman's body the same way again.

「陰道」，雖為女性身體的一部分，卻鮮少被直接談論，如果有，可能是因為談論「處女」、「生產」、「月經」話題，或者是曖昧不明的字眼，例如：我的「下面」、「那邊」不太舒服。美國的伊芙‧恩絲勒因在與朋友談論停經期時提及陰道，從她的成長經驗中，也發現人們不太提及陰道，於是她開始想知道其他女人對陰道的看法，訪問了形形色色的婦女，從她們口中聽到許多從陰道這個主題延伸出的相關故事，然後用第一人稱口吻、以獨白的方式，由不同的女性述說她們的故事，這就是震撼全球的《陰道獨白》，該劇在紐約非營利劇院上演後，立刻造成轟動、佳評如潮。

當1997年，《陰道獨白》舞台劇於美國演出大獲迴響後，1998年，伊芙．恩斯勒決定創立一個名為「V-DAY」的非營利組織，致力於「反對任何施於女性身體的暴力，直到暴力終止」，以喚醒人們對女性受暴議題的關注。

2001年起，「V-DAY」組織授權給全球婦女團體於其在地城市搬演《陰道獨白》，以為當地反暴力組織籌募經費。演出期間，同時進行各式「V-DAY」活動，邀集當地關心婦女受暴、反暴力的組織共同發聲，一起見證努力的成果。在全世界有一千多個城巿相繼舉行V-Day『陰道獨白』的劇碼，活動總數超過三千項，而各城市所演出V-DAY之售票收入的十分之一，也將回饋給「V-DAY」總部，做為推動終止對婦女和女孩暴力的基金。
