Show Types

Two Flavors of MENding

We want as many audiences as possible to experience The MENding Monologues. 

Also, we are dedicated to having men throughout the world get involved with this work and discover for themselves the transformative and healing power of telling their stories on stage. To that end, we have created two types of shows.  

The Road Show

 

The Road Show is a professional troupe of MENding Monologues veterans who will travel and perform our original two-hour show at your venue. A portion of each show’s proceeds will be donated to a local woman’s shelter or organization dedicated to ending violence.  The Road Shows are often booked six to nine months in advance—so be sure to book us early.

The Community Show

The Community Show invites writers, actors and novices from your community to write, produce and stage their own shows using our process. These Community Shows are encouraged to utilize existing works from The MENding Library to supplement their performances and inspire original works. Men are asked to courageously tell their stories of how violence has impacted the women in their lives and affected their relationships.

Each Community Show will be asked to share their best content with The MENding Library to create a movement, which will be made available for other Community Shows performances. Writers will retain the copyrights to their material, but will be asked to give limited permission for The MENding Monologues to allow other performers use their work for the stage.

Each Community Show will required to donate 90 percent of their proceeds (minus necessary expenses) to a women’s shelter in their community or to organizations committed to ending violence.  Ten percent of each show will be donated back to     The MENding Monologues Foundation to offset expenses.
