a new show by Michael Wicherek

SK8 Angelis the powerful and emotive story of Con, a fourteen-year old boy coming to terms with the loss of his mother.  He feels an urgent need to escape, to lose himself … Then he meets ‘SK8’, a skateboarder who shows him a place where only the most committed and determined will learn to fly; where he will begin to find his feet again.GLYPT and writer Michael Wicherek bring this new play and epic poem to young adult audiences, combining the skills and excitement of skateboarding with the traumas of growing up and dealing with all that life can throw at us; setting tragedy alongside soaring moments of release.   SK8 Angel with its pulsating sounds and visuals is a ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat!
