The Amanda (Saoirse) Show

Role: Director, Production Manager, Costume Designer

Help Saoirse Siné live out her dream as we recreate some of The Amanda Show's iconic skits... with a twist. 

This show will deal with the darkness that comes with child fame and the blind eye often turned to struggling child stars. Focusing on Amanda Bynes’ life and career, we will delve into conservatorships, unethical production protocols and the dubious people that have surrounded Amanda for her entire life.

This show is a result of hours and hours of work, separating the conspiracy theories and media circus from the facts of Amanda’s life. We want to tell audiences the unheard stories from behind-the scenes of The Amanda Show, and encourage us all to push for changes in the industry. 

You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll scream.
