I apologize for my extended absence, everyone! As usual, I’ve been dealing with personal drama so it hasn’t afforded me the time to write here. But I am over at Bitch Magazine doing the Sex and the Fat Girl column, so if you haven’t checked that out yet, please do so! Also, I got a webcam so I’m going to answer the “Ask Ms. Fierce” questions via video very soon.
But enough about my lack of writing, I’m here to offer you a chance to win 2 tickets to Erica Watson‘s upcoming one-woman show, “Fat Bitch!“. According to the flyer, “Fat Bitch!” is:
[...] a funny yet thought-provoking look at how society’s obsession with weight, race, class and gender stereotypes affect us all!
Through personal vignettes, anecdotes and video clips, “Fat Bitch!” offers a humorous and honest glimpse at the American “fat and sassy” black woman stereotypes that continue to influence modern day images of black women. Written and performed by Watson as a hybrid of theater and stand-up comedy, “Fat Bitch!” responds to how black women and their bodies have always been subjected to sexualized admiratin and ridicule.
Plainly put, “Fat Bitch!” targets society’s racial, gender, class and body prejudices through a comedic performance that is educational and entertaining all at once!
Shows are in Los Angeles at the Greenway Court Theater on April 29 at 8 p.m., April 30 at 8 p.m., and May 1 at 5 p.m. To enter, fill out and submit the following form. A winner will be chosen at random on Thursday, April 28! The winner will then be provided with a link to download their ticket confirmations.
Good luck! I’ll be reviewing the April 30 show for Bitch, so if you can’t make it, look out for that.
