SKIN–by Fest Founder Hope Singsen, directed by Jessi D. Hill

NEWS! This show will be followed by a Sacred Singing Circle led by music healer Julie Brown and friends!

Don’t miss the show Tony Award-winner Tonya Pinkins called an “Amazing show… Fabulous evening.” Frank and funny, this queer love story with music explores some of the ways art helps us heal, tracking a grad student's road back toward intimacy and wholeness after sexual violence. Racing to write herself into a happier future, the student’s work and sex life get more and more inventive. She strives for a love greater than any she’s known before. But after you learn to guard against life, can you open up again?

"SKIN LEFT ME SPEECHLESS. IT IS SUCH A POWERFUL EXPLORATION OF SELF, TOUCH, TIME, AND HEALING. IT TOOK MY BREATH AWAY.”—Audience member
