As part of V-Day, a global campaign to end violence against women and girls, a group of MEPs have invited playwright Eve Ensler to their performance of her celebrated play 'The Vagina Monologues' on March 6.
the performance is due to take place in the Parliament's Espace Yehudi Menuhin, which hosts events as diverse as Holocaust Remembrance Day, talks on oil and gas exploration in the Arctic, and performances of early music and dance ensembles.
The Wall Street Journal has a very funny post about this performance at the Parliament. The writer says " Only in the European Parliament could something as uncontroversial as not hitting women become a source of drama."
There is a lot of pushback for having this attention grabbing show in the Parliament, however, the European Parliament boasts of several bars, a gym, a hairdresser and a meditation room - now is the idea of a theatre inside the Parliament confusing ? :)
