U OK Hun?

New Creatives

Available for over a year

U OK Hun? takes place within the mind of a young woman battling with anxiety and attempting to overcome demons from her past. A microcosm of the ‘Hero’s journey’, over the course of the poem our protagonist is able to subdue and transcend her own negative feelings and self-image, and impel herself to get out of bed and make a cup of tea. ‘U OK hun’ is the story of a person completely overwhelmed by the prospect of facing the day, who finds the mental strength to challenge her own deafening internal monologue and take the day for herself. New Creatives is supported by Arts Council England and BBC Arts. New Creatives Artist - Midge Ryall
