“Humour and movement merge in the deeply personal solo about body image…in a society obsessed with impossible beauty standards for women, the Tara Cheyenne Performance founder’s solo is about taking power back.”—Stir Vancouver
Written, choreographed, and performed by Tara Cheyenne Friedenberg
Body Parts is the hilarious one-woman show from veteran artist Tara Cheyenne Friedenberg in which she tries to perform her show but gets comically side-tracked by her own body issues. This show within a show is one that never actually starts…or does it? Part stand-up comedy, part Greek tragedy, part contemporary dance, and 100 % relatable, this show leads audiences through Tara’s personal landscape of body dysmorphia and self-loathing with her signature approach to performance: biting humour, insightful social commentary, and intimate honesty. Hilarious and empowering, this revelatory and joyous show invites us to enjoy the amazing things our bodies can do and laugh through the tears together. Audience advisory: contains swear words, suggestive language, and underwear. Suggested age 13+.
