Jumping from themes of sexuality and existentialism to chippies and vibrators, Cumbrian-born performer Kyra Scott takes the audience on a journey of emotions in this 30-minute one-woman show that guarantees tears and laughter.
The show follows Isobella, a foul-mouthed Northern lass tackling the hardships of being an 18-year-old in the 21st century. Faced with a sealed envelope, she battles with the decision of whether or not to open it, a decision which is sidetracked by an abundance of oversharing! Hilarious moments are countered with sincere and honest conversations about her struggles with mental health. In these moments the audience recognises Isobella’s confidence as a guise for her pain.
Writer and performer Kyra Scott, crafted Isobella’s candid character to tear down stereotypes and normalise stigmatised conversations. As a recent acting graduate, Kyra performed her debut show for the first time at 53two in May 2023 and has since performed it twice in Cumbria, selling out both shows. Taking “solo” to the next level, Kyra is not only the writer and performer but has produced the entire project and developed all technical aspects of the production.
“Amazing script, wonderfully performed, laughed and cried.” - Audience member May 2023.
“[Kyra] captivated the whole audience, left us wanting more!” - Audience member July 2023.
