Skin Deep is a stage showcase of original solo pieces, written and performed by women, about the search for beauty and self-esteem. Studies show that the most effective way to combat every social ill, from poverty to illiteracy to oppression, is to educate and empower women. In the interest of social equality and progress for all people - of every gender and walk of life - we provide entertainment which supports and empowers on three major fronts: THE AUDIENCE: By presenting resonant, real life stories about women, Skin Deep affirms for audiences that no one is alone, that the search for true (inner) beauty and self-esteem is shared by everyone, and that this lifelong quest - though never finished - can and does bear fruit. THE ARTISTS: By providing a venue for actors, writers, musicians, Skin Deep offers artists the chance to fulfill their creative potential, support socially meaningful work, and present their talents to the public. THE COMMUNITY: By taking every possible opportunity to promote women’s issues and organizations, Skin Deep encourages an atmosphere of awareness, compassion and respect. This progress, like ripples in a pond, can’t help but benefit the community - both locally and globally.
