    2010

    The Edinburgh Fringe Festival is happening soon!

    And I'll be appearing at it with Lady in Bed, my one-woman show (see dates below).

    It's based on true stories from my love-life which I deliver in a lively physical style, playing all the characters (including a colourful array of ex-boyfriends and myself at various ages) and aims to stimulate laughs, tears, memories and amazement.

    I've gleaned some great reviews and a very positive response from audiences.

    THE BLOG: http://ladyinbed.wordpress.com for reviews, audience comments and occasional musings.usings on the show's progress.

    STORY OF LiB:

    Lady in Bed was created in 2007/8 by myself and my director, Laura Eades, in whatever time and space we could muster between other jobs. It premiered at a sold-out John Mills Theatre for The Pulse  Festival, Ipswich on 10 June 2008. Since then, I've taken it to various festivals and venues around the UK (and Belgium).
