*Synopsis: *

Created by Meredith L. King <https://www.facebook.com/mlkplaywright/>, in
collaboration with the Saturated Fat Ensemble; *Saturated Fat
<https://www.facebook.com/fatsonstage>*  is an original theatrical
spectacle that explores fatness, connection and visibility in the modern
world. this ONE-NIGHT ONLY live play derives from the real life experiences
of the ensemble, as well as experiences shared through the Twitter hashtag
#FatSideStories
<https://www.revelist.com/dating/fat-side-stories-about-sex/4296>.


Originally developed in Cleveland Public Theatre's Entry Point series in
2017, *Saturated Fat* is back and better than ever as an independent
production with new content and a new cast.


*Saturated Fat* is a transgressive experience in fatness that explores both
the unique and universal in existing in a theorized, politicized and often
deconstructed body, and aims to find power in that reality. Far from being
a “woe as me” tale, *Saturated Fat* rethinks fatness and the meaning we
give to it through a thoughtful and humorous integration of movement,
music, story and theatricality.
