Kevin Kwan Special Appearance at Irvine Barclay THeatre
01.30.20
Internationally acclaimed author Kevin Kwan will be at Irvine Barclay Theatre on Thursday, Feb. 6 at 8 p.m. Best known for his breakout debut novel, Crazy Rich Asians, which became something of a cultural phenomenon, topping best-seller lists worldwide, spawning two best-selling sequels and inspiring a #1 movie.
Called “a dizzily shopaholic comedy...wickedly delectable” by The New York Times, Crazy Rich Asians, loosely based on Kwan’s own experiences growing up in Singapore, made cinematic history as the first romantic comedy from a major Hollywood studio to feature an Asian lead actor and actress and the first Hollywood studio film in 26 years to feature an all-Asian cast.
With humor and fascinating insight, Kwan discusses creativity, the cultural impact of his novels, and how diversity in many industries must continue to expand.
Tickets start at $48 here.
Please contact the Box Office directly at 949.854.4646 or tickets@thebarclay.org
Irvine Barclay Theatre is at 4242 Campus Drive in Irvine.

Vagina Dialogues at Liftique Blush
01.30.20
Recently, I was able to attend the Vagina Dialogues at the new anti-aging institute and women's sexual wellness clinic, Liftique in Newport Beach.
The medical discussion about vaginal rejuvenation was led by Nurse Practitioner Elaine Kopinga and Liftique’s founder and breast cancer survivor Meryl Kern.
Meryl's focus is on non-surgical solutions to address concerns of all women living with courage, facing up to adversity and standing fearlessly together to celebrate our similarities as well as our differences.
The room was full of women who wanted to learn more, ask the experts questions, and share intimate stories of what they deal with. The common feedback was women said they would love more of these events; they got so much out of it. I felt the same way. And, some really won wonderful raffle prizes. Liftique gave away $10,000 in procedures, treatment and products!
And the good news, Vagina Dialogues will be returning sometime in February, date to be determined. The truth is many women struggle with incontinence and vagina health issues, but not many women feel comfortable talking about it even with their doctors.
The beauty in Liftique Blush, is that it’s a comprehensive non-surgical, women's medical practice dedicated to the relief of painful and embarrassing bladder and vaginal health issues.
They offer clinically proven solutions for vaginal tightening, improved bladder control and vaginal dryness. They can evaluate your issues and treatment options so that you can discover the most appropriate procedure for you. Now you don't have to suffer in silence. Their goal is to help women to stop feeling powerless and start feeling empowered by taking charge of this often undiscussed health topic
