Beneath the Skin is a theatre-performace company that blends physical theatre, theatre, sensory experiences, and visual poetry .

Our performances blend theatre, physical theatre, sensory theatre, and visual poetry to create immersive, multi-dimensional works that speak to the core of what it means to be human.
We explore the deepest parts of ourselves that shape our identities and stories. Through our diverse disciplines and mindful approach, we aim to reveal the unseen layers that connect us all.
We invite audiences into a shared journey—an environment where you don’t just watch, but feel, empathize, and participate.
