Growing up with a stutter is a complicated thing. You're not normal enough to be treated like the others and yet you're not disabled enough to receive help. You're left to fend for yourself with an invisible muzzle that flares at the worst times. When everyone treats your seemingly singular defining trait as something unspeakable, what do you start believing about yourself? In the most unconventional of places, The Bathroom Floor explores one woman's messy journey of fighting with faith, self-perception, and ultimately having to choose a life worth fighting for.

About Katelyn Benton

The Bathroom Floor is a solo show by Katelyn Benton, performed at Willow Studio at Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Growing up with a stutter is a complicated thing — not normal enough to be treated like the others, yet not disabled enough to receive help. With an invisible muzzle that flares at the worst times, and everyone treating this seemingly singular defining trait as something unspeakable, what do you start believing about yourself? In the most unconventional of places, this show explores one woman's messy journey of fighting with faith, self-perception and ultimately having to choose a life worth fighting for.

Why see this show?

A solo performance that speaks to the experience of being caught between categories — too invisible to get help, too present to be ignored. Honest, personal and quietly courageous.
