Fear and Loathing this Saturday

I have been invited to sit on a panel entitled. "Fear and Loathing: Why We Despise What Scares Us." It is this Saturday on the 8th, from 6:00pm-7:00pm at the Dairy Center for the Arts and will be moderated by Bud Coleman, Associate Professor in the Department of Theater and Dance at the University of Colorado at Boulder. The panel is part of a series of program being offered in conjunction with a play entitled Fat Pig which, according to the Daily Camera:

premiered off-Broadway in 2004, questions prevailing notions -- at least in some parts of the country, like uber-fit Boulder -- about bigness and beauty. It's also about our capacity for honesty, with ourselves and others. How much honesty is too much and how much is too little? At what point do we allow what others may think of us to become too important?

Below are the details of the play and the "Saturday Series" panels that precede them. There is no cost to attend the panels, I hope that you can make it.
