Combining storytelling, comedy and puppetry, Backstage in Biscuit Land presents an intimate glimpse into Thom's unique perspective as a performer and woman with Tourette Syndrome. As a result of her tics, Thom says the word 'biscuit' 16,000 times a day. She loved the theatre as a child, but the intensity of her tics made it increasingly difficult to attend.
