You're Skitting Me (2012–2016)
9/10
Beautiful, Emotional and Stirring but a Little Too Sad.
15 February 2014
This stirring commentary on how people with mental disabilities experience life left me speechless after my first viewing. A brief and harsh half-hour window into the itinerant minds of those with less psychological fortune than ourselves, this show bombards the viewer with a staggering collection of largely disparate scenes that leave it's audience both confused and horrified while being utterly moved by the inspirational experience. My only criticism of this brilliant artistic piece would be its unerring relentlessness. I would have appreciated perhaps even a few moments of comic relief in the sea of heavy emotion that was this programme. However, I respect the artist's integrity to choose not to include a single piece of humour across the entire period for the sake of the message. Extremely impressed by this group of teenagers.
