An anti-diet dance theater performance that uses an intersectional approach to understand anti-fatness in relation to capitalism, race, and patriarchy through an historic lens, current analysis, and personal experience. Using ensemble and solo dance, song, storytelling, research, and projections, this one-hour show is also about body liberation, pleasure, dancing alone in the mirror, eating mangoes, and shaking off that which binds us.

Performed by Laura Haines, Winnie Looby, Alex Heisler, Zoraya Hightower, Hadley Mueller, Rhonda Doonan, and Rachel Siegel.

Co-sponsored by Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies and Chellis House, Black Studies, Dance, Committee of the Arts, and the Academic Enrichment Fund
