Maybe you've noticed, but skinny is so back in fashion, which means eating disorders are actually hot again!
But that's okay, because who could afford groceries anyway? Don't you love it when fashion is practical?
This is a witty, off-beat hour of stand-up that interrogates society's obsession with physical appearance. Through a narrative based on the ending of a relationship, Steph offers up a darkly relatable critique of eating disorder culture and normative femininity, while questioning what it means to present as femme in a world that so often equates feminine worth with physical desirability.
