My First Time, the new Off-Broadway play "in the style of the Vagina Monologues," featuring interviews, confessions and first sexual experience anecdotes, invites virgins to attend the production's first performance on July 12 for free.

Those in doubt that there are any virgins left in New York City can watch hypnotherapist Sebastian Black interview the virginal candidates in order to determine their eligibility for free admission. Those individuals deemed virginal enough to wear white on their wedding day will see a cast of four, including Bill Dawes, Josh Heine, Kathy Searle and Cydnee Welburn.

Ken Davenport (Altar Boyz, Awesome 80's Prom) produces the production, which describes itself in production notes, thusly: "In 1998, a decade before blogging began, a website was created that allowed people to anonymously share their own true stories about their 'First Time.' The website became an instant phenomenon as over 40,000 stories poured in from around the globe that were silly, sweet, absurd, funny, heterosexual, homosexual, awkward, shy, sexy and everything in between. And now, these stories and the unique characters in them are all brought to life in My First Time."

The open-ended run plays New World Stages, located at 340 West 50th Street. Tickets, priced $25, are available by calling (212) 239-6200. For more information visit www.MyFirstTimeThePlay.com.
