Realistic Self-Defense
Presented by Walsh's own Dr. Michael Dunphy

“Eaten Alive” with Eva Van Dok

Eaten Alive is a one-woman theater piece that presents the lives of five women in different stages of their lives, all of whom suffer from different eating disorders. Nominated for Lecture of the Year, this piece shows the behaviors, thought processes and lifestyles these women in a way that illuminates their emotional issues as they live and try to function with their disorder. Eva shows attendees how it is easy to fool oneself with excuses and false promises such as it is “not a problem” or that “I will stop once I lose these last 5 pounds.” She achieves this by creating characters with whom the audiences can relate: a roommate, a sibling, a friend or even themselves. Since 1997, this piece has truly saved lives.
