The Selkie: creature of myth; a seal who removes her sealskin to feel the pleasures of the human body for a night. But when the man she meets steals her sealskin, she is trapped on land. Grotesquely animal, bewildered by the human world, she is stuck in the wrong skins of woman and mother. And her hybrid, misfit daughter, the only one of her kind, is left struggling to escape the generational memory of the ocean.

Liminal Theatre and Performance return, in collaboration with writer/performer Georgie Durham, to present a new work of poetry and punk, exploring grotesque femininity, displacement, inheritance, and the freedom of being a misfit. Durham’s virtuosic one-woman performance of two characters is directed by Draf Draffin, accompanied by immersive video projection and sound design by award-winning artists, videographer Ivanka Sokol and composer Meta Cohen, and Stella Delmenico's live electric guitar.
