When Brandon Monokian discovered that his high school and local library had banned Revolutionary Voices by Amy Sonnie for sexual content but left The Joy of Sex he decides that something more than a 'strongly worded letter to the editor' is needed.
Brandon Monokian was recently named one of South Jersey Magazine's "Names to Know," and is currently preparing for the upcoming New York run of his original play Grimm Women (starring Style Network's Briella Calafiore). Directing credits include Revolutionary Readings, Princeton Public Library's Page to Stage series (which he co created), and three time director of The Vagina Monologues. Acting credits include: How To Build A Forest (PearlDamour, The Kitchen), Shlemiel the First (dir. David Gordon, Skirball Center/ Alexander Kasser Theater), and PastTENSE (dir. Robert Woodruff). In addition to writing plays and commercials, his theatre journalism work has appeared on Blog-o-zines Insite, Culture Vultures and Library as Incubator Project.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
