I saw this recently and thought it was one of the better solo shows I have seen since September (there have been tons and tons of them), my only complaint is that is runs 2:15 and could have been trimmed a little. I have never seen Eve Ensler perform and she was terrific, this is a real high energy production. I expected her to mostly lecture in front of a dark wall for two hours but she really makes use the stage. There is some interesting audience interaction and a bit of nudity (more so than Fire and Air surprisingly). I will say that the material is pretty graphic especially when she describes what she went through regarding cancer and viewing domestic abuse in the Congo. There is also really beautiful surprise at the end which I won't spoil.

I saw the show earlier this week and it was only 80 minutes, not 2:15...

My mistake, I was referencing Fire and Air and got the show run times confused.
