i will still be whole
“And the stone which encased her body cracks open.
And she shakes off the vines and the dust.
And she feels the blood under her skin.”
In 1996, a young mother with a bag in her hand walks out of a small house in
Shepherd’s Bush. She does not look back. 
In 2019, a daughter lies in a bath until her skin blooms.
She looks up to stare at a crack in the ceiling. 
 
After 22 years, EJ prepares to meet the mother who left her. Joy prepares to meet the child she doesn't know.
They run, they bathe, they inhale, they wait. 
 
i will still be whole... is a lyrical interlinking of monologues devoted to race, belonging, and what we inherit from our parents.

LITTLE MISS BURDEN
They are the coolest, fiercest, most super talentedest girl band ever assembled:

Big Sis and Little Sis are waiting for the third member of their trio to arrive. Little Miss is on her way. It just takes her a little bit longer.

At thirteen, Little Miss is given a gift which cannot be returned. It’s a part of her. She has to share her body and life with it. And she needs to find a way for the two of them to get along as they can’t both be Player One.

Matilda Ibini’s coming-of-age tale smashes together 90s nostalgia, Nigerian family, East London and Sailor Moon to tell the sometimes tricky, often funny truth about growing up with a physical impairment.
