Synopsis According to
the press release:
The Vagina Monologues challenged notions
of acceptable topics in theater and became the impetus for a
worldwide movement to combat violence towards women. Now, in The
Good Body, Eve Ensler turns her unique eye to the rest of the
female form. Whether undergoing Botox injections or living beneath
burkhas, women of all cultures and backgrounds feel compelled to
change the way they look in order to fit in, to be accepted, to be
"good." Merging these cross-cultural explorations with her
own personal journey to come to terms with her "less-than-flat,
post-40s stomach," Ensler has created a work the San Francisco
Chronicle called "passionate, funny, frank, revealing, even
shocking"
