Valentine's Day is quickly becoming a time to think, talk, and share about vaginas. This year,  Nashville has its own amateur production “Read Our Lips” to celebrate the topic.

The two hour show will explore Nashville's thoughts, feelings, and experiences of vaginas, addressing topics like creation and motherhood, gender roles, pleasure, pain, menstruation, becoming a woman, growing older, and many more.  All pieces are original and written by the cast, which includes women, men and transgendered persons.

The show is a fundraiser for Mending Hearts, a local transitional living facility and safe haven for women. Mending Hearts is located in West Nashville, and is home to almost 40 women at risk of becoming homeless due to addiction. More information and their wish list is available at www.mendingheartsinc.org.

Trina Frierson, Executive Director of Mending Hearts, says, "Every day a woman stays at Mending Hearts is another day that she learns a lesson about respecting herself, her body and those around her."
