Tony Sloan's IN JUST MY UNDERWEAR to Premiere With KC Fringe
The human body is an amazing thing. However, sometimes we don't always view it as such. Kansas City Theatre Artist, Tony Sloan is a 23 year old, 6'5 man and at one point of his life he weighed 330 lbs. Currently weighing in around 220 (depending on how bloated he is) - You might think Tony would make a great Before & After picture. However, what if the journey from "Before" to "After" isn't always so glamorous?
Follow Sloan as he discusses body image, diet, exercise culture, and confidence through the scope of his own 100+ pound weight loss during this one man exhibition. Oh...and he isn't wearing any pants.
As part of KC Fringe, Tony Sloan's original one man show's first workshop premieres this July.
