Ford Hall Forum at Suffolk University, Communication, Journalism, & Media Department, Women’s and Gender Studies Department, and the Suffolk University Theatre Department present:
TOO FAT FOR CHINA
A Comic Look at the Agony of Adoption by PHOEBE POTTS
This comedic theater performance is a sequel to Potts’ graphic memoir, Good Eggs, which charts her travails with infertility she and her husband endured. In Too Fat for China, Potts picks up the narrative with her quest for international adoption. The story has a happy ending, but it twists and turns through fraught questions about family and race—subjects that feel particularly pertinent in our current political climate. Potts tackles it all, as she does life, with humor and irreverence.
The performances will be followed by talkbacks with Potts and Shoshana Madmoni-Gerber, associate professor, Communications, Media, and Journalism Department, Suffolk University.
