New Studio, 17th September at 7:30pm, 18th September at 5:00pm and 6:30pm
Skin Deep is a semi-autobiographical journey constructed by an inconsistent narrator, a flickering schizophrenic, an unusual host. Influenced by the larger-than-life world of burlesque and the idea of the ‘truth’ of the persona, the work unveils the ‘self’ in the make-believe. Focusing on and around the concept of the self as a performative construct, the work skims the skin of who we are and who we pretend to be, trying to move past the red lipstick and thick gold glitter whilst revelling in its rainbow of colour.
Please note: content of the performance not suitable for under 18s.
