Bodies of Work
Just a quickie post to INSIST you go and see Dr Glover’s ‘Bodies – The Exhibition’ in Dublin’s Ambassador theatre.
Last night was opening night, and after a light snack (it’s not a show to see on a full stomach) I had a good nose around. It is absoutely stunning, the dissections they have pulled off are incredible, and aside from all the shock reactions it has garnered (largely due to questions over where the bodies have come from, it’s hugely educational.
A word of warning: The room of embryos and foetuses is not recommended for anyone who is, or has, been party to a crisis pregnancy. It is utterly shocking, and can only serve to swing views on abortion one way, in my opinion.
I’ll be on Phantom FM’s The Kiosk, talking about it with Nadine O’Regan, and also reviewing @Wossy’s (Jonathan Ross) reappearance on television after his prank call with celebritranny Russel Brand.
Exhibition site is here: www.bodiesdublin.com. I’ll blog a full review over the weekend.
