Jess Thom has Tourettes, a condition that means she makes movements and noises she can't control, called tics.
Following award-winning Backstage In Biscuit Land, she takes on Samuel Beckett's short play in a theatrical experience that explores neurodiversity and asks who is allowed to perform what and who gets the final say.
All performances are accompanied by a BSL interpreter/performer and are relaxed. This means that if you tic, shout or move about, you're more than welcome. And the great thing is, everyone can benefit from a relaxed performance.

I have been a fan of Thom for a while and having seen her on TV and I think she is a really inspiring person and missed this show when it was at the fringe last year. Really looking forward to seeing it and haven't seen Beckett live before but I find him really intertesing but just wanted to share it with other people and maybe see if anyone saw it at the fringe before.
A just seen there is an article in time out about the show.
