SUMMARY:Lilith: The Other Side of the Story - Storytelling with Katy Cawkwell
DESCRIPTION:Before Eve\, there was Lilith… \nAn uplifting one-woman storytelling show. An exploration and celebration of female power through the mythological character of Lilith. Shocking\, seductive and entertaining. \nLilith\, 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. \nKaty 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.\n“Compelling and gripping” Everything Theatre\nAudience feedback: “Totally captivating.”   “I was spellbound.”   “Brave\, fun and brilliantly told.”   “Staggeringly good.” “Great interweaving of stories from different cultures and perspectives.” “Wow! What a rich\, wonderful evening of entertainment.” \nAge guidance: 16+ \n\n\nEvent Details\nDoors Open at 7:00PM\nFrom 7:30PM to 9:00PM
