Sexing the Cherry at the South Bank Centre

Set on the banks of the muddy Thames in 17th-century London, Sexing the Cherry is a tapestry of tales spun with magical threads. Using spoken word, music, animation and puppetry, Metta Theatre, the company behind last year's sell-out success Waiting (starring Juliet Stevenson), brings to life one of Jeanette Winterson's most vibrant novels.

"I am playing Fortunata, a dancing princess, and her eleven sisters, which involves some performing on a trapeze, and playing the violin."
