Perth Theatre Company

30 November 1999


Written by Gary Henderson Directed by Alan Becher Featuring Stuart Halusz and Karen Roberts ' ... electrifying... if only all theatre were so powerful... compelling viewing, a must see.' CAPITAL TIMES, 1995 'Wrenchinly Beautiful' SCOTSMAN, 1998 On the day that Elizabeth leaves, there is time enough for her and her husband to speak their last secrets... Skin Tight tells the intimate story of a rural marriage. Tom and Elizabeth weave a violent and erotic dance of the union through an exhilarating feast of fights, lovemaking and tenderness. The characters strip themselves, literally, to explore the heart of an enduring love. Featuring non-stop, no-holds-barred, forever young performances, Skin Tight captures all the ecstasy and pain of a passionate love affair. This beautifully lyrical play, choreographed with electrifying sensuality, will leave you breathless. This is a piece of pure theatre for inveterate romantics, which expands the ordinary truth of people's concerns and lives. Skin Tight was the winner of the Fringe First Award at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 1998, and has been acclaimed all over the world.
