Slightly Sideways Theatre presents 'Leave My Fluctuating Body Alone' (A Work in Progress)
Meet Sophie, an undiagnosed neurospicy nursery nurse from Essex in the dodgy end of her twenties. Leave My Fluctuating Body Alone is a mental health piece that focuses on Sophie's journey to recovery. This dark comedy is a raw confessional of what it's like navigating womanhood in all its outrageous forms. It pokes at challenging themes surrounding beauty ideals, body image, social media and diet culture and how this feeds into so many facets of a woman's life. Provocative and powerful new writing by Elle Hudson and Jessica Evans.
