Rosemary Hawthorn is

'THE KNICKER LADY'

 A unique, hilarious one-woman show that romps through the chronology of underwear in an unforgettable way that is too good to miss

The Knicker LadyTM is the hit show that reveals the history of the humble knicker with a tempo and hilarity that leaves audiences, both male and female, spellbound and dying for more!

The Knicker Lady

Surrounded by old suitcases, boxes and hat stands, Rosemary delves through two hundred and fifty years of bloomers, briefs and bustles and presents the myriad of colourful characters that wore them, in a unique and enigmatic style of her own.

Audiences are transported back to the muslin clad elegance of Jane Austen's England, the corset bound nineteenth century, the suffragettes and daring darlings of the roaring twenties.

With charismatic vivacity The Knicker Lady scrutinises, like never before, the liberty bodice, school knickers, the mighty Y-front and much much more... there isn't a brief left unturned!

"...A delightful mix of costume and social history with a dash of  pure cabaret!"

"Has a style and timing of pure comic genius"  Angus Wolfe Murray, Theatre Critic
