From media darling to public downfall, this playful and poignant new show imagines the rise and fall of a fictional icon through a vibrant blend of dance-theatre and live documentary. Surreal, daring and sprinkled with bittersweet humour, it explores how women are shaped – and shattered – by the spotlight. Tess Letham brings this idiosyncratic character to life, offering a relatable glimpse into her humanity. Combining distinctive, improvisation-based movement with sharp cultural commentary, bizarre tenderness and unique physical presence, this is an innovative and thought-provoking work from one of Scotland's boldest dance-theatre voices.
