Watch Amanda Wilkins steal a one-woman show with Shedding a Skin, returning to London after a sell-out run in Spring 2021.
A tale for our time, Shedding a Skin is all about discovering kindness where you least expect it. Set out on a journey with Myah, a young woman navigating through joy, healing, protest, and intergenerational friendships. A story of finding one's place in the world, it explores making a connection with what our elders can teach us, new skin honoring old skin.
The Verity Bargate award-winner play is written and performed by Amanda Wilkin and directed by Elayce Ismail. After a sell-out run in Spring 2021, the show is set for a stunning return for 3 weeks only at London's Soho Theatre.
