On The Edge explores the difficult subject of trauma through character comedy.
This thought-provoking show follows the stories of four characters, from very different walks of life, who are each dealing with trauma in their own unique way. They find themselves together, united only by their pain. Bonnie, a sad wannabe Instagram influencer, Janet a fiery drunk, Cheryl an aggressively confident raver and Linda, their taciturn observer. This patchwork of intriguing characters looks at how the human brain can navigate life’s challenges to find ways to cope and flourish.
