Event

Second Skin

When Quinn discovers her estranged mother is dying, she returns to a home. As she cares for her mother, Quinn wrestles with disturbing childhood memories. What is her mothers secret? What do the Irish bedtime stories of Selkies her mother once told her really mean? Told in three interconnected monologues, SECOND SKIN investigates the fraught relationship between mothers and daughters, and how one mistake can reverberate across generations.

Performed on a beach at La Jolla Shores, SECOND SKIN returns to the origin of theatre as stories told around a fire.
