Manhattan Theatre Club has now released official production photos for its current New York premiere of the American Repertory Theater production of In the Body of the World, written and performed by Tony Award recipient Eve Ensler and directed by Tony Award winner Diane Paulus, which began previews at New York City Center's Stage I on January 16, 2018, and is set to officially open on February 6.

Synopsis: "This new play is based on Eve Ensler's critically acclaimed memoir. While working with women suffering from the ravages of war in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ensler was stunned by a life-threatening diagnosis. Told with her signature brand of humor, Ensler's personal journey uncovers surprising connections between her body and the earth and how illness can be both transformative and transcendent."

Eve Ensler is an author, performer and activist, who received the special Isabelle Stevenson Tony Award in 2011. She is perhaps best known for her Obie Award-winning play The Vagina Monologues and she made her Broadway debut in 2004 in her self-penned solo play The Good Body. Her other off-Broadway credits include Emotional CreatureThe TreatmentNecessary Targets, and Ladies.

In the Body of the World Tickets are available now for performances through to March 25, 2018.
