NHS70: ECZEMA!
ECZEMA! written and directed by Maria Fusco explores the life of eczema; a skin disease affecting an estimated 15 million people in the UK, including the writer herself. Exploring what it is like to live in co-occupation and incessant dialogue with eczema, Fusco’s black comedy mingles itching and scratching cycles into an absurdist, celebratory score of spoken word and music.
A day of events investigating the cultural, clinical and creative life of skin. The day culminates with the premiere of Maria Fusco’s new work, ECZEMA!
