Official Trailer

Videography by Pip Films

A 70-minute heartwarming comedy about social anxiety and the quest for connection.

If you’ve ever freaked out before a party or overthought a text message – this one’s for you.

Wyld Woman: The Legend of Shy Girl is a fast-paced, sidesplittingly funny, raunchy yet heartfelt show about shyness, longing, and the desire to feel worthy of love.

A love letter to anyone who has ever felt too shy, too weird, or too much.
