                                          BodyLove:
                                          Queer Bodies Revealed thru Spoken Word

                                          BodyLove opened eyes and hearts, as 10 talented and distinct writers took the stage to REVEAL untold stories about queer bodies.  A benefit show for National Eating Disorders Association, BodyLove took audiences on a journey through the PAIN, SHAME, RECOVERY and liberation of "the tyranny of thin," and other battles with body image and eating addiction/disorders.  But don't forget the LOVE! The evening also celebrated the beauty and BOUNTY of bodies, flaunting who we are and entertaining the outrageous notion that what we've got is SUPER HOT.

                                          All proceeds went to National Eating Disorders Association, "dedicated to providing education, resources and support to those affected by eating disorders."

                                          This show was co-presented by SHIF, a Peer Recovery Network supporting dynamic recovery paths by uniting our LGBTQ community to experience freedom through empowerment.  A collaboration between Multifaith Works, Seattle Counseling Service, Gay City Health Services, & Dunshee House.
