Leanne Moden had developed her first full-length spoken word
show, Skip Skip Skip, and it’s brilliant: an emotion inducing ride of teenage angst, belonging
and identity. Combining poetry, storytelling, humour and movement, Skip Skip
Skip is an honest, heartfelt performance that deserves to be seen.

“Now, I’m finally ready to take the whole thing up to the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival. But I need your help!”

A performance poet for nearly a decade, Leanne developed this
show from conversations with friends and colleagues about how music shapes our
friendships, personalities and lives, especially during those tricky teenage
years. She’s now been offered a slot at the PBH Free Fringe, performing at the
Banshee Labyrinth, and will be there every day at 7pm, from the 17th to the
25th of August.
To help fund Leanne’s show, or to find out more, please

Leanne has been telling poems at events across the UK and
Europe since 2010, including recent performances at TEDx WOMEN, WOMAD Festival,
Sofar Sounds, Bestival on the Isle of Wight and the Fourth Wave Feminist
Festival, as well as festivals in Estonia and Spain. She's been a national
finalist at the BBC Edinburgh Fringe Slam, the Hammer and Tongue slam, Poetry
Rivals, the Camden Roundhouse Slam, the Axis Slam, and the Anti-Slam. It would
be great to se her shine in Edinburgh.
