In each performance, before a new audience, A Gorda (The Fat Woman) pursues the same goal: to lose 116 grams.
In order to burn the calories required to achieve it, she creates a theatrical performance, a performative experiment, a kind of fitness class—only more beautiful. She exercises, formulates calculations, gets lost in theories, shares memories, and finds poetry in every drop of sweat that runs down her body.
Perhaps then she will finally become a real actress.
