About the Project
Naturally Tan is a one-woman show written and performed by Tanya Thomas, with direction and development by Jessica Lynn Johnson. Told through the bold perspective of a vivacious drag queen named Tanvi, this solo show follows Tanya Thomas through her cross cultural struggles with identity, beauty and self acceptance while growing up as an Indian minority in Singapore.
This 75 minute seriocomedy utilizes multimedia and multiple characters to explore themes ranging from the cruelty of body dysmorphia – to the adventures of finding one’s place in the world. As Tanvi comedically recounts Tanya’s rigid upbringing in a Singaporean Chinese majority environment, we watch Tanya encounter a myriad of transformative experiences along the way. Will Tanya hide behind her insecurities forever or will she discover her newfound confidence as a woman, mother and artist?
