Annie Lennox will make an appearance at The URSB Carteret Performing Arts and Events Center, Oct. 11.
Annie Lennox of the pop duo Eurythmics will talk about her life, her music and more at The URSB Carteret Performing Arts Center, Oct. 11, in conjunction with the release of her new book, “Annie Lennox: Retrospective.”
The evening will feature her “in conversation” with V (formerly known as Eve Ensler), the writer, performer and activist best known as the playwright of “The Vagina Monologues.”
Tickets are now on sale for Carteret PAC members, and will go on sale to the general public on Aug. 29. Visit carteretpac.com.
A book will be included in the ticket price, but Lennox will not sign them at this event.
According to promotional material:
With Polaroids from her personal archives alongside iconic portraits, music video stills, and record covers, ‘Annie Lennox: Retrospective’ collates more than two hundred images to create an illustrated memoir of a creative’s life, both in and out of the spotlight.
Made in close collaboration with the artist, this highly anticipated volume moves chronologically through the entirety of Lennox’s life and career — from the early 1970s when she first met Dave Stewart following through with Eurythmics in the ’80s, and then as a solo artist starting in the ’90s and onwards. Extracts of her lyrics accompany the photographs throughout. Engrossing captions and personal anecdotes shine light on periods of her life, to tell the stories behind the pictures.
“Annie Lennox: Retrospective” will be published on Sept. 23.
