Admin

Join award-winning storyteller Ansa Edim in her hilarious and heartfelt one-woman show, Is This Normal?, as she takes you on a wild ride through dating at the intersections of race, body image and mental health. Growing up fat, Ansa faced relentless body shaming that deeply affected her self-esteem and mental health, leading to severe depression and anxiety. It didn't help that she was constantly getting engaged and calling off weddings. From the awkward missteps of a naïve newbie to the empowering realizations of a confident woman, Ansa's journey is a rollercoaster of laugh-out-loud moments and poignant insights.
