Mirror Mirror
Around one in every twenty girls in the UK are estimated to have anorexia nervosa
'Mirror Mirror' is a powerful piece of theatre that looks at the issue of body image and eating disorders as it follows one girl’s experience of anorexia. The performance shows both the struggle she goes through and how she begins to overcome it. The play brings this subject to life and is followed by an interactive workshop.
The theme of body image and eating disorders is a key issue facing many young girls today and the play is a powerful tool to show the reality of these issues.
The play coupled with the interactive workshop allows room for young people to react, discuss and respond to their own feelings about body image.
