NOW PLAYING

Fat Pig

by Neil LaBute
directed by Barbara Damashek
EXTENDED to December 13, 2009!

Does size really matter? In this funny yet poignant play, LaBute continues his exploration of body consciousness in contemporary America with Fat Pig, the second in a trilogy that began with The Shape of Things (produced by Aurora in 2002).

"A provocative hit in New York in 2004... Barbara Damashek's Aurora staging is even richer, funnier and more disturbing." - SF Chronicle

 

"A delicious exploration of sex, love and body image that makes us swoon." - Contra Costa Times, San Jose Mercury News

 

"The laughs are abundant... I recommend it highly!" - KGO Radio
