Jess Thom has Tourettes, a condition that makes her say 'biscuit' 16,000 times a day. Her unusual neurology gives her a unique perspective on life; one she's unleashed on the world. This two-woman solo show weaves comedy, puppetry, singing, and incredible tics to explore spontaneity, creativity, disability, and things you never knew would make you laugh. Jess is neurologically incapable of staying on script, and that's when the fun begins.
Co-Creators: Jess Thom, Jess Mabel Jones, Matthew Pountney
Supported by Unlimited, Graeae & Battersea Arts Centre
