Self Censored

When does self-censorship stop protecting you and start erasing you?

Inside a fractured subconscious, a chaotic drag persona and an overprotective childhood plushie battle over buried secrets. Developed at Leeds Conservatoire and premiered at Leeds Theatre Festival 2024, Self Censored blends raw, personal storytelling with live original music to explore autism, masculinity and the exhausting performance of fitting in — offering an unfiltered glimpse into a mind caught between self-protection and self-expression.
