In this one-woman show (
Caitlin), written by
Mike Kenny and directed by
Steve Elias,
Christine Kempell, in Caitlin's brutally honest words, tells of their years together from her own perspective and reveals some shocking insights into their mutually destructive relationship.
It was a relationship in which she feels that history judges her more harshly as a mother, married to the 'Voice of God', who had to put her own unfulfilled ambitions as a dancer on hold.
Christine Kempell, says:
"This is a gift of a part for a woman of my age. Just because we're not in our thirties anymore doesn't mean we can't be sexy, rude, vulnerable and resilient all at the same time.
"Behind the successful poet is this woman who sacrificed everything for the man she loved. He could not have achieved what he did without her.
"Caitlin is raw, truthful and unapologetic about the life she lived and the choices she made.
"This is a monologue to the forgotten women everywhere whose stories deserve to be told."
Caitlin (part of Brighton Fringe) at Rialto Theatre, Brighton, from Friday 13th - Sunday 15th May 2022. CLICK HERE for tickets.
