Debut hour from Funny Women Content Creator 2023 runner-up and Britain's Got Talent Semi-Finalist. In 2022, politically unaware Nerine Skinner went viral for her parodies of Prime Minister Liz Truss. Outlasted in Downing Street by a lettuce, Liz Truss's political relevance faded and the country moved on. But Nerine didn't. Through hilarious, original, oddball characters, award-nominated political parodies and heartfelt storytelling, this is the story of Nerine trying to let go. Examining how holding onto the past and her unconventional upbringing led to an unhealthy codependency with the former Prime Minister.

Holly, Phoenix Remix, 11th July 2024Fringe Quickies: 28 - Nerine Skinner: The Exorcism of Liz Truss
"I think there may be an understandable assumption that my show is political and full of impressions and satire. The show is actually about how I started doing Liz Truss parodies by accident and gained a career as a political satirist, even though I'd never done it before!"
