Steph Tisdell
ABOUT THE SHOW
FAT: Unapologetically unpacking the F-word that’s always on everyone’s mind. This isn’t just a comedy show about weight; it’s a hilarious, honest and sometimes uncomfortable exploration of the absurdities surrounding body image, health and the complexities of living in a society that profits from our insecurities.
FAT is a show about finding your true self, even if that self is a little curvier than society says it should be. Expect laughs, gasps and maybe even a few moments of self-reflection.
