Amidst the chaos and mayhem of a topsy-turvy life, Charlene finds herself in the absurd predicament of being a walking paradox — a visibly pregnant woman who isn’t pregnant. Misunderstood and left to her own devices after conventional remedies fail to heal her condition, she stumbles upon a controversial remedy that isn’t entirely legal. She’s About to POP! is a solo show that tickles as well as taunts. Written and performed by Charlene Modeste, it pokes fun at stigma, false narratives and other immaculate misconceptions. The show shares the trials and triumphs of her personal story as she endeavors to heal massive uterine fibroids with cannabis.
