About this Event
A Two‑Hour Variety Show Celebrating Fat Brilliance ✨
A collaboration between Heavy Duty Dance Collective and Heavenly Bodies Dance!
Join us for a joyful, electric two‑hour variety show dedicated to celebrating fat creativity, skill, and entrepreneurship. This vibrant event centers fat performers and makers across disciplines - featuring live music, dance, comedy, drag, burlesque, spoken word, and more - alongside a curated lineup of fat‑owned vendors offering art, apparel, crafts, and self‑care goods.
This show is about visibility, celebration, and community. It’s a space where fat bodies are not explained or apologized for, but honored, spotlighted, and applauded. Come experience bold performances, shop incredible work, and connect with others in an atmosphere that’s unapologetically inclusive, welcoming, and affirming.
