About the Show.
Over It - Death, Anorexia & Other Funny Things is a show that seeks to explore more sensitive topics which are normally swept under the carpet. The show looks at the idea that you are your experiences, yet, this is no bad thing. This positive and inspiring show, details how these two up and coming comics are not 'Over It'.
Dave Chawner, a straight male, takes a satirical look into his anorexic past in order to raise awareness of eating disorders and to get people talking about positive body image. Whilst Robyn Perkins recounts the unexpected, ridiculous aspects of dealing with the death of her partner. The show balances serious discussions with hilarious perspectives, walking you through life experience, crisps and lingerie.
The show has received positive feedback including Four Stars from Broadway Baby, of Chortle's 10x10 Top Fringe Shows To See 2013, and being dubbed as "a performance that makes you think as well as laugh" by Broadway Baby.
