Sex+ Presents: Phat!

This is a whirlwind of an evening with a cabaret and panel discussion celebrating fat bodies and debunking the perceptions of fat people in society. Our performers and panelists will be showcasing how sexy, creative and talented fat people are and how their art is informed by their life experiences of being fat in the world. The unique combination of panel and performances will bring art to life in a moving and light-hearted way and create the space for important conversations and for audience participation in the Q&A at the end.
