[15] In 2015, Mercy won the Rich Mix "Small Story, Big City Emerging Artist Award",[1][2] which helped her to develop On The Edge Of Me, her first solo show.
On The Edge of Me is a dark comedy that uses audience participation, live music, and poetry to address a range of current topics including graduate unemployment and mental health issues.

Originally titled Totally Unprepared,[22] the show deals with young people's anxiety around becoming adults as well as exploring the London-born lead character's Nigerian heritage.
