Story for Lightweight
A girl walks into a 28-day addiction treatment center... and stays for a year.
Lightweight is the story of creator and performer Amie Enriquez's real-life journey through rehab to recover from eating disorders while simultaneously trying to survive her ignorant parents, incompetent therapists, the nagging ghost of a dead music icon, a codependent relationship with a new patient, and flirty encounters with unaccompanied pastries.
Told from the perspective of several characters, with samples of Amie's journal entries and art therapy creations from her time in treatment, you don't want to miss this riveting "Fleabag" meets "Girl, Interrupted" solo play making its Off Broadway debut after having a critically acclaimed run at Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
