  • BONUS: Tink at The Other Palace (ft. Lizzy Connolly, Kat Kleve & Rosanna Bates)
    Oct 6 2024

    Having premiered at the Tobacco Factory prior to a sold out run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Tink is about to kick off a London run at The Other Palace Studio.

    The show is composed and performed by Kat Kleve and written and directed by Lizzy Connolly with movement direction from Rosanna Bates.

    "Tink is an imperfect, messy ‘female gaze fairytale’ in all its ugly glory. A nostalgic and thoroughly modern coming of age musical monologue navigating the complex social struggles of tweens, teens and full on adulting. It’s a love letter to a young you – reminding you to SHINE – like little you would want you to!"

    After a day of rehearsals, Kat, Lizzy and Rosanna sat down with West End Frame Editor, Andrew Tomlins over a glass of prosecco to discuss what this show means to them, how it feels to be revisiting the piece and navigating their careers as creatives whilst also being mums.

    Tink runs at The Other Palace Studio 8th - 20th October. Visit www.theotherpalace.co.uk for info and tickets.

    Hosted by Andrew Tomlins.
