Wellness: A Social Justice Play
A "beautifully vulnerable" semi-autobiographical verbatim play examining
social justice through the lens of fatism, fatphobia, and discrimination.
"Inspiring, brave, authentic, educational and confronting", 'Wellness'
aims to open up taboo conversations and question well-meaning motives
around us.
Written by emerging writer, Ella Arendelle, we touch on sensitive subject matter and deeply personal stories. Verbatim theatre has a sting that can't be matched.
