THE PLAY:
This action-packed feminist comedy, written and directed by Southern Methodist University Assistant Professor Kara-Lynn Vaeni, offers a forthright look into fitness, body image, and how we define strength. For this production, the audience will be ‘getting back in the gym’ both literally and figuratively and hopefully, as Itaca.com stated in its glowing review, "by show’s end, want(ing) to get back out there, hiking and biking and even swinging a few kettlebells."
