"Playwright Eve Ensler created a global phenomenon with The Vagina Monologues, a play that addresses the feminine experiences of love, intimacy, and reproduction. The show's success (it's been translated into 48 languages and performed in 140 countries) inspired Ensler to create V-Day, an international movement to stop violence against women. Ensler is yet again combining creativity with advocacy through her new play, Emotional Creature, which is a series of monologues about the innermost thoughts of teenage girls. The play addresses serious and often taboo issues such as eating disorders and human trafficking, but its underlying message is that there's a commonality in the obstacles that all girls of a certain age confront. Whether a teenager is stressed about where to sit in the cafeteria, or forced into child labor in a factory in China, pain is pain\u2014no matter your situation or where you live.\n\nWe spoke to Molly Carden, Sade Namei, and Joaquina Kalukango, three of the six actresses in the play. Emotional Creature is Molly and Sade's Off Broadway debut, and Joaquina's second Off Broadway show.\n\nThe New York production of the show opens on Nov. 12, and is expected to run through mid-January."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
