 Ananova: 
'Hoohaa' over Vagina Monologues

A charity production of The Vagina Monologues in Florida has changed its name after a woman complained it was offensive.

Atlantic Theatres in Atlantic Beach changed the title of the play to The Hoohaa Monologues, reports Metro.

It came after a complaint from a woman who had driven past the theatre with her niece who had asked her what a vagina was.

The theatre's Bryce Pfanenstiel said: "I'm on the phone and asked "What did you tell her?" She's like, "I'm offended I had to answer the question"."

Some have welcomed the change to The Hoohaa Monologues, while others expressed confusion. "It sounds like a country band," one passer by commented to local TV station WJXT.

The production is being staged by a group of law students, with all proceeds going to charity. The director has asked for the title to be changed back.
