Episode 19 - Jordan and Skinner at the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe

from Persistent and Nasty · host Persistent and Nasty

Louise and Misha sat down to talk to the extremely cool and talented Caitlin Skinner and Mel Jordon about their latest show, "A Brief History of the Fragile Male Ego". They are both very lovely people. Well, Caitlin is lovely. Mel is secretly awful, but it's so secret no one ever sees it! ABOUT THE SHOW The multi award-winning Jordan & Skinner present a riotous new solo show that cuts to the bone of gender politics. Andrea has been giving her lecture but it's not been going well – previous events were marred by protests and she's hoping the open-minded audience at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe will hear her out. You see, half the world is suffering under the weight of a heavy burden. If we're not careful everything will smash. And we wouldn't want that now, would we. Running until 26-Aug (ex 14 + 21) at 16:00 at the Pleasance Dome (Ace Dome) Book your tickets here - https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/brief-history-of-the-fragile-male-ego ABOUT JORDAN AND SKINNER Jordan and Skinner are feminist theatre company who want to see a world in which women* take up space.
