THEATER

Men Strike Back: You’ve heard of “The Vagina Monologues,” right? Well, now the men are going to have their say. From May 25 through June 10, at the Blue Heron Theatre in downtown Manhattan, Ernest Thompson and Richard Gilliland will be performing 12 playlets about a part of men’s anatomy that often leads them into trouble. Thompson, who is also the writer and director of “The Penis Responds,” says he intended the show to be a direct answer to the “Monologues,” though it does not follow the same format as the Eve Ensler off-Broadway hit drama that features a rotating trio of actresses reading from scripts. He also notes that the show will be more “lighthearted.” Thompson returns to the stage after achieving notable success as the author of the ‘70s Broadway dramas “West Side Waltz” and “On Golden Pond.” Depending on the critical and audience reaction to “The Penis Responds,” Thompson says, a commercial run may follow the three-week showcase.

Police Files: A man was arrested Saturday in Sun City, Ariz., for allegedly stalking singer Linda Ronstadt before a concert. Bernard A. Ortiz, 55, was taken into custody on a felony warrant for stalking that had been issued in Ronstadt’s hometown of Tucson. “I love her,” Ortiz told reporters before he was transported to jail in Phoenix. . . . Damian Delgado, the lead actor of the film “The Other Conquest,” was robbed at knifepoint on the Santa Monica Pier after a screening at Laemmle’s Monica Theater. Delgado said four young men took his wallet, which had $600 cash, and roughed him up. The 33-year-old actor was shaken by the assault, which happened around 11 p.m. over Easter weekend, immediately after he signed autographs at the Laemmle. “I was just relaxing on the beach after a big dinner,” said Delgado, who lives in Mexico City. “Then this group of six guys came up to me and asked me for money. I always thought it was strange that in such a rich country people ask for money. But then I saw the blade and I knew it was serious. . . . Even in Mexico, I always take the subway, and I’ve never seen a knife blade in my face.”
