Operation Shrink
Written and Performed by Ella McGran
"Operation Shrink is not only a powerful story about disordered eating and the specifics of the disease faced by so many young people, but also about the greater societal troubles regarding self-image and peer pressure which impact all of us. I highly recommend this tremendous and important work."
"This show is in a class on its own: intellectually rigorous, unendingly generous, concise, emotional, and urgent."
“…a powerful, honest, and beautifully performed piece. McGran’s story is one of hope and resilience. When we identify, name and confront our demons, we create the possibility for transformation”
Welcome to Operation Shrink...
A powerful, honest and deeply personal story. Operation Shrink is an auotbiographical solo show exploring Ella's lived experience with an eating disorder. Through confessional storytelling, intense workouts and tap dance, Ella invites audiences to reflect on what it really means to live with disordered eating, obsessive exercise and mental illness.
Raw, reflective and unflinchingly honest, this is theatre that opens up conversation and asks important questions.
