A Body at Work

Frankie van Kan

Dubbed “… A dynamite piece of theatre” by ArtsHub, *A Body at Work*, directed by theatre alumni Maude Davey, is the honest, humorous, and heartfelt journey of a sex worker asking the question—will they love me at my Madonna when they’ve relished me at my whore?

Friday, 8:30 pm
