Taxpayers Billed for Zombie Macbeth, Plays About ‘Privilege’

The National Endowment for the Arts released its latest round of grants, with new taxpayer-funded art such as Macbeth with zombies, cowboy poetry, a play about privilege, and a traveling gay men’s chorus.
The new art projects touch on prominent liberal concerns such as gun control, climate change, and gender identity issues.
The drag queen “Fauxnique” is back, receiving part of a $30,000 grant in San Francisco. Monique Jenkinson, a “feminist, postmodern, improvisational dance” artist whose drag queen alter ego is “Fauxnique,” received funding last year for a performance titled “Gender in Transition.”
