Last night, Sunday April 18^th, employees from all three New York stores came together to perform an all-Babeland cast production of The Vagina Monologues.Over the past few months, a group of our amazing and talented Babes dedicated hours of their personal time to an audition process, individual rehearsals, group rehearsals, and time on their own in an effort to perfect their performances.Everyone had a lot of fun working with each other in a new capacity and getting a chance to see another side of one another. The most important aspect of this endeavor, however, was that it was all done for charity. We chose Right Rides ( www.rightrides.org ) as our beneficiary, and were able to have representatives tabling at the performances. The mission of RightRides For Women?s Safety, Inc. is to build safer communities by ending gender-based harassment and sexual assault. They do this by offering women, LGBTQ and gender nonconforming individuals a free, late-night ride home to ensure their safe commute to or through high-risk areas. 10% of ticket sales also went to the V-Day 2010 Spotlight on Women of the Democratic Republic of Congo.Lucky for our audiences, not only were they generously donating to great causes, but they were also able to enjoy a truly fantastic show. I was blown away by the scope of talent within our staff, and judging from what I heard after the show, the audience felt the same way. It was truly an honor to direct and perform alongside a group of such brilliant and inspiring thespians, who all managed to bring an uplifting show to a whole new level of sex-positivity.
