THE KNICKER LADY RETURNS TO TEIGNMOUTH

Rosemary Hawthorne aka THE KNICKER LADYTM makes a welcome return to The Carlton Theatre, Teignmouth on Friday 31st May with her acclaimed One Woman Show of the same name.

Rosemary, often to be seen on television and radio, is a classical actress, and one who has been described as “having the style and timing of pure comic genius”.

A well known fashion historian, as well as actress, Rosemary fills the stage with her most unusual props as she tells the side-splitting story of women’s lives over the last two hundred and fifty years. It is a history lesson like you never had at school!

An email following a recent Show read,  “….absolutely hilarious…. you can be assured that you will not be forgotten, and I look forward to seeing the show again…. an evening to remember.”
