In Kate Fox News, comic poet, stand-up and sometime journalist Kate anchors her dramatic life story to the big news events. While The Satanic Verses burned in Bradford, Kate was hitting the local headlines for eloping with a gunrunner. As the Twin Towers fell she was crafting it into a sound bite for local radio news. She wished Tony Blair was her Dad, and found out the Yorkshire Ripper drove lorries for her Auntie. From the Thatcher Years to MP’s expenses and volcanic ash Kate asks; where you were when the news broke?

Kate fox news made our honeymoon. The best show we saw at the fringe and still thinking about the warm, sometimes touching but always seriously funny stories/poems. Thanks kate for the memories we'll be seeing you at northern stage soon.

I thought this was great. Very engaging, fantastic insights, and the poem about small girlfriends was fab - from 2 singletons who wouldn't admit it!
