Lilith:the Other Side of the Story

About

Before Eve, there was Lilith...
A dramatic, uplifting one-woman storytelling show.
An exploration and celebration of female power through the mythological figure of Lilith. Shocking, seductive and entertaining.
Lilith, the first wife of Adam, was not prepared to lie down and accept what was given to her. Thrown out of Eden, she slithered back in to take her revenge and wake Eve up to what her body could do.
Viewed as a demon, worshipped as a goddess, adored as the Queen of Sheba, Lilith slips out of the Bible, reclaims the narrative and is dancing with us still, forever free.
Katy Cawkwell, a performance storyteller at the top of her game, mixes myth from Arabia, Ethiopia, Mesopotamia and Jewish tradition, with a dash of feminist flavouring and a large dollop of her own wild dreaming.
"Totally captivating" "Staggeringly good!" "I was spellbound"
Brave, fun and brilliantly told
Great interweaving of stories from different cultures and perspectives
"Wow! What a rich, wonderful evening of entertainment"
