NEW YORK — V, the playwright formerly Eve Ensler, is hoping her new piece of theater can do for climate change what her “The Vagina Monologues” did for women’s rights.
“At a time when our planet is burning from the impact of global warming and human-made climate catastrophe, ‘Dear Everything’ is a powerful musical uprising,” Fonda said in an email. “It’s not necessarily about the politics of solution. It’s about the politics of connection,” says V. “I think it’s imaginative. I think it’s really calling on all of us to use our imaginations because that’s the greatest thing we have to really see a way out of where we are.”
V hopes “Dear Everything” can be produced elsewhere. It’s not expensive and doesn’t need fancy sets or lighting, a bit like her “The Vagina Monologues,” a series of sly, lyrical, incisive first-person vignettes based on her interviews with hundreds of women.
