Theatre-maker Tim Norwood teams up with Dr Nicola Buckland (Department of Psychology) to produce a one-man show that uses storytelling, gentle humour and stripping to explore our relationship with our bodies and to challenge misconceptions about body image.
Tim and Nicola also brought in a counsellor specialising in eating disorders to make sure the show was as constructive and supportive as possible and to provide aftercare for anyone affected by the themes.
Please be aware the show contains mature themes, covers issues around eating disorders and features nudity. Suitable for over-18s only.
