Everyone will be pleased to know that Jon’s favorite celeb blogger will be coming to Charlotte in the fall. Eve Ensler herself will perform her “provocative, interview-driven examination of body politics” solo show The Good Body at the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center. A special Arts & Sciences Council grant of unspecifized size underwrites the show. If memory serves, the ASC gets about one-third of its funding from the city of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County.
And unless I miss my guess, there’s some interesting back-stage politics to this tale yet to emerge.
