Walking on Eggshells

by Emma Lynne Harley
Produced by Siren Theatre Company
and Scissor Kick

BRITNEY SPEARS MEETS NEUROSCIENCE, SCI-FI, CABARET AND THEORETICAL PHYSICS TO ASK:

WHAT DOES “MOVING ON” AFTER THE END OF AN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP LOOK LIKE? 

A CELEBRATION OF SURVIVAL AND A HUMOROUS INSIGHT INTO LIVING AND NAVIGATING RELATIONSHIPS WITH COMPLEX PTSD.

Walking on Eggshells is the autobiographical crack at Post Traumatic Stress Disorder you won’t see coming: Imagine a sci-fi Faberge egg, meets Doctor Who, meets the alternative universe in which Britney Spears became a neuroscientist.

​​

Influenced by their experiences of being working class, queer, disabled and neurodivergent, W.O.E. fuses autobiographical theatre, cabaret, stand-up and scientific research into a show that asks: What does it really mean to “move on” after an abusive relationship? And is there really life after love?
