Event Description A one-woman powerful play that breaks the silence on eating disorders.
The Thin Line uses live theatre to break the silence on eating disorders, reduce the stigma surrounding mental illness, and pave the way to prepare young adults for the intense pressure of high school, college, and beyond. The program helps begin the conversation about eating disorders by illustrating the pain of one girl’s struggle and her loved ones’ resolve to understand and to help.
Composed to present a wider understanding of the impact of eating disorders, The Thin Line features four characters with distinct voices all played by a professional actor. Characters include (in order of appearance): Cindy, a friend; Ellen, a girl struggling with an eating disorder; Ellen’s negative voice; and Ellen’s mother. As the play unfolds, Ellen’s illness progresses and the complications and stakes get higher.
