A new comedy drama about finding your nan’s suicide note by award-winning writer and performer Sophie Bentinck. Pauline is the brutally honest and joyfully hilarious story of three generations of women in one family - and of the writer who went digging in the secrets file in order to bring them all on stage.
Directed by Fred Wienand (Twelfth Night, Yvonne Arnaud Theatre) and presented together with producer Emma Blackman (Bobby & Amy, Fringe First Award 2019).
Originally due to premiere in 2020, Pauline charts Sophie’s journey who, against all odds, is taking her debut play to Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2022 to tell the story of all of the women whose shoulders she stands on.
