DIRECTIONS:
Whitman Theatre is in a new building on campus. From McCarter Theatre go south on Alexander Street to Faculty Road. Turn left onto Faculty Road, and take the next left onto Elm Drive. Look for Visitor Parking in Lot 23, which is behind Whitman College. Go to the front of the building for access to the theatre.

ABOUT V-DAY:
V-Day, a global movement to stop violence against women and girls, promotes creative events to increase awareness, raise money and revitalize the spirit of existing anti-violence organizations. V-Day generates broad attention for the quest to stop worldwide violence against women and girls including rape, battery, incest, female genital mutilation and sexual slavery.

Valentine's Day has been chosen as the universal V-Day, with all the local performances of Eve Ensler's provocative play The Vagina Monologues taking place on or near February 14. V-Day is a vital ongoing process. Supporters proclaim Valentine’s Day as V-Day until the violence against women stops. Only then will it become Victory Day.
