On The Edge is a solo show which explores the theme of trauma through raucous character comedy.
Three people are thrown together in a therapy room, led by an ill-equipped therapist called Linda. Each character has their own story - Cheryl is a self-proclaimed parkour expert from South London, Bonnie is an Australian wannabe influencer and Janet is an old widow with an ailing memory but sparky attitude. Voiceover and projection add other dimensions, as Jesse switches skilfully between the characters.
