JULIE LIKES TO DRAW SQUIRRELS

Award-winning stage and screen actor, campaigner and quite possibly one of the nicest people you’re likely to meet, Julie Hesmondhalgh presents her one-woman show as a fundraiser for Oldham Coliseum Theatre and The Edge, Chorlton.

Julie Likes to Draw Squirrels is the tale of a Lancashire childhood and adolescence written and performed by Julie herself and directed by Sameena Hussain. The performance will be followed by a Q&A.

Julie said: “I wanted to do something to support some of the theatres I love best in the North West and thought that this little show – about growing up in our part of the world – might be something that audiences might like: a bit of a diversion from the madness of the world during the festive season. It’s a very personal show about my childhood and family, about the importance of words and nature, about the healing power of daftness. And, of course, about what it felt like to finally get a part in the world’s longest-running soap after years of being asked “So. When will we see you on Corrie?”!

Julie Likes to Draw Squirrels is a fundraiser for Oldham Coliseum Theatre and The Edge, Chorlton and will tour to both venues.

RUNNING TIME: 45 minutes followed by a Q&A
