Fat Pig

Directed by Tracie Pang
Starring Gavin Yap, Frances Lee, Elizabeth Lazan, and Zachary Ibrahim

Tom, a handsome, young professional, falls head over heels in love with a sweet-natured, sexy, funny and intelligent girl named Helen – who just happens to be ‘plus-sized’. He then clumsily tries to keep the object of his desires a secret from his friends: his obnoxious best friend Carter, and his on-off girlfriend Jeannie, who both become obsessively curious about Tom’s new, mysterious lover. As Tom weaves a tangled web of deceit, he starts to question his friendships, and is also troubled by questions about his own integrity; while Helen remains steadfastly loyal, lovable and a lot more than meets the eye.

As Tom and Helen fall deeper and deeper in love, and Carter and Jeannie get closer and closer to the truth, the course of true love is going to get messy – BIG time.

Winner of the Outer Critics Circle Award for “Outstanding Off-Broadway Play”, and nominated for the Olivier Award for “Best New Comedy”, FAT PIG is a hilarious ‘rom-com’, a bittersweet love story, and also a slyly observed comedy of manners, prejudices and taboos.

Gary is one of those proverbial jack of all trades… you know the rest. When not writing about lifestyle and culture, he dabbles in photography, graphic design, plays four instruments and is a professional wearer of bowties. His greatest weakness: spending more money on clothes than he probably should. Find him across the social world as @grimlay
