Credible Likeable Superstar Role Model

Thu 3 Jul 2014

In an audacious, provocative protest against flagrant global attempts to sexualise and commodify childhood for profit, award-winning artist Bryony Kimmings (Sex Idiot, 7 Day Drunk) and her nine-year-old niece Taylor decided to play the global tween machine at its own game by inventing dinosaur-loving, bike riding, tuna pasta-eating, alternative pop star Catherine Bennett.

Winner of a clutch of awards at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2013, including 3 Weeks Editors Award and Fringe Review Outstanding Achievement Award, Credible Likeable Superstar Role Model is set in a fantasy land far from our own, where lines are drawn in the sand, girls become knights, eyeballs are gouged, wars are waged and people sell their souls. In typically screwball and humorous fashion, Bryony begs the question: what does it really take to be a Credible Likeable Superstar Role Model for a child of the 21st century?

The last chance to see this show ever.

‘Hilarious, heart-breaking, troubling and inspirational. Kick-ass in all the right ways.’ ★★★★★ Time Out
