Her show, Irena Sendler: Rescuing the Rescuer, premiered at the London Festival Fringe in 2017.

Skala collaborated with her husband, musician Steven May, to create her third show, Felicitas, which was premiered at the New York International Fringe Festival in 2014. May created the mandolin music score which he performs live on stage to underscore Skala's story of her great-aunt Felicitas Sofer, a highly trained professional baby nurse who migrated from Vienna, Austria, to join her sisters Lilia and Lisl in America. She was the nurse in attendance at Skala's home birth.

In 2013, Sunnyside Gardens Historical Alliance presented Lilia! in conjunction with the unveiling of a National Register of Historic Places Plaque on the former home of Skala's grandmother Lilia Skala, Stage and Screen Actor, for which Sidney Poitier wrote a tribute. A month earlier, Skala performed A Time to Dance for Sunnyside Gardens Historical Alliance in honor of a National Register of Historical Places Plaque unveiling at the home of her great aunt, dance therapy pioneer Elizabeth "Lisl" Polk.

In 1995, months after her grandmother Lilia Skala's death, Gary Austin encouraged Skala to write a one-woman show about her Academy Award-nominated actress grandmother. The show Lilia! was developed in Austin's workshop and went on to receive rave reviews internationally. It ran successfully off-Broadway at the Arclight Theatre, produced by Mirror Repertory Company; at The Groundlings Theatre in Los Angeles (presented by Gary Austin); at Pacific Theatre in Vancouver; at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland; in London, sponsored by the Austrian Cultural Forum; in Tbilisi, Georgia; and in Berlin and Dresden, Germany.

Libby Skala (April 20, 1967–December 1, 2019) was an American actress and writer best known for plays about her Austrian-American relatives. She wrote four one-woman shows, including Lilia!, A Time to Dance, and Felicitas, which she performed across North America and Europe.
