Miranda Harcourt's Biography of My Skin

Once in a blue moon a show raises your spirits with the magic of real life. Much loved actress Miranda Harcourt’s BIOGRAPHY OF MY SKIN has you in tears one minute and laughing-out-loud the next.

Set against an 80s and 90s soundtrack — and a backdrop of traffic violations, the ’81 Springbok tour, hand-made skin lotion, GLOSS, Princess Di and true crime — BIOGRAPHY traces the role of a lifetime through four decades we’ll never forget.

Written by husband Stuart McKenzie, BIOGRAPHY is a comedy about love, marriage and growing up. What starts as a solo show is soon anything but, as people from Miranda’s life pop up unexpectedly to claim their side of the story.

From the team who brought you kiwi classic FLOWERS FROM MY MOTHER’S GARDEN, this popular and critical triumph is outstanding contemporary theatre with a big heart. If you’ve been in love or come from a family, BIOGRAPHY is a must-see.

“It is funny, insightful, shocking, poignant, extraordinarily personal and ?nally generous. A gift. Not to be missed.”
