Is This Normal?

Following its 4-star debut at EdFringe 2024, award-winning storyteller Ansa Edim brings Is This Normal?—a shockingly true and uncomfortably cringe storytelling show about dating disasters, societal expectations, and self-acceptance — to NYC. With humor and vulnerability, Edim unpacks the highs and lows of love, societal expectations, and the messy path to self-acceptance. As a fat Black woman navigating modern romance—often in spaces that weren’t built for her—she shares raw, hilarious, and deeply personal stories that prove truth is often wilder than fiction. A compelling, unforgettable journey of embracing power, breaking free from norms, and finding joy in a beautifully imperfect story.
