Description
A moving one-woman show about the trials and tribulations of living with chronic pain. Written, created and performed by Tali Foxworthy-Bowers, this piece shares her personal experience of chronic back pain through comedy, spoken word and movement. This piece aims to shed light on all ‘invisible’ illnesses and ailments, to educate those who have not experienced chronic suffering and connect with those who have, allowing an opportunity for recognition and relief through shared experiences. Tali tells her story (and crucially, the story of many other chronic pain sufferers) with warmth, honesty and vulnerability.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
