Lucinda Holloway, star of Glitter Knickers at the Rondo Theatre

Glitter Knickers is proving (on the evidence of two nights) to be something people like! We had another smashing audience, with a very large “on the door” queue. I hope you’ll indulge my sharing some feedback – and if it inspires you to come, that would be wonderful – just tonight & Saturday (4/5 March) left! Book here.

“Bloody amazing”

“Hilarious, beautifully observed, artfully written. Go.”

“Go and see Glitter Knickers: it’s brilliant!!”

“Great night out. Very, very funny show.”

“Blown away! Funny real clever moving.”

“A tour de force in writing & performance -catch it.”

“Hugely enjoyed Glitter Knickers:  great script, perfect casting and laugh out loud funny.”

“It really is fantastic and will resonate with women everywhere. Made me laugh continuously.”

“You are a consummate storyteller Gill and this play is a romp through the imagination and Lucinda created such visual imagery. It was a joy! Huge congratulations to all involved. Thank you for a great night at the theatre.”

GLITTER KNICKERS AHOY!

OK – IT’S SHOW TIME!

The new show can be unveiled!

It’s called Glitter Knickers, it’s on for just 4 nights in March, here in Bath and it’s a comedy about being in your early middle age. Tickets have just gone on sale and the theatre (the gorgeous Rondo, with comfy seats for just over 100 and a dandy bar) have agreed to do a promo deal for me.

So the dates: 2-5 March at the fantastic Rondo Theatre in Bath.
And if you’re buying before midnight on 31 December, you can get 10% off with the promo code GLITTER.

BOOK HERE!

If I can get bums on all the seats, it means our arts council / funding applications to take this out on tour will be much stronger, so please, if you think you fancy it, do book now (those of you who know me know I’ll be relentlessly touting ’til they are all sold, so don’t put it off!)

Hope to see you in March, if not before!
Happy Christmas and have a great 2015.

Lawks – new news!

What a delight is life!

Further announcements to follow, so suffice it to say there will be a new show on stage next year, a 1-woman comedy-adventure. What will you get? A bit of wee,  a wee bit of a tears and a LOT of laughing. For all grown-up girls and boys.

Mid-writing, I’m doing this scripty stuff on me tod, so I’m recruiting the unsuspecting and the guilty to join in. Apart from sharing titbits of text with some other honest writers here and there, I’ve set up a FB page where anyone at all can post and respond to sillinesses on the themes of the play.

Interested? Click here and then “like” the page, and you can be the audience in the heart of the thing’s very creation! (and I will be very grateful).

And lastly, the very funny and very talented cartoonist Jackie Fleming has given me the OK to use her cartoons for this project, as long as I credit her and let you know she has a new book out in March! Check her out here!
