Jordan & Skinner are lead by performer Melanie Jordan and director Caitlin Skinner. We make joyful performance about the stuff that makes us angry.  Our style is a mix of physical theatre, clown, dance, politics and visual metaphor.

Our productions have toured all over Scotland and we often present work at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe where we won two awards- Fringe First for Sanitise and Three Weeks Award for At A Stretch.
