Chances are someone you know has an eating disorder. Nearly 1 million women and girls in the UK have one. Is it really just skinny girls, refusing to eat?
Joy Unspeakable is an all-female gig-theatre show exploring disordered eating through real-life testimony—why it’s all about food and nothing to do with food.
With large doses of anger, hope, and joy, Ordinary Glory present the true testimonies of four women, each with a different eating disorder and each at a different stage of recovery.
Expect physical theatre, live folk and punk music and real-life stories.
