About the Show
Sophie Bentinck makes work about hair, suicide and taxi journeys. Her shows feel like children whispering under a table at a grown-up party, sunrises and men in eyeliner. Her writing is brave, sensitive and brutally honest. Pauline is a funny heart-warming journey of personal-discovery about the grandmother Sophie never knew. Sophie introduces us to her mum, via frank recorded interviews and her grandmother, Pauline through extracts from Pauline’s diaries. Pauline is a rare, intimate and salacious glimpse into this family of 3 women spanning 100 years. Somewhere between ‘Who do you think you are’ and trying on your mum’s high heels, Pauline will make you want to dig a little deeper into your own family history and to get on the blower to your nearest and dearest. So, join Sophie as she boldly asks…Mum, can we talk about this?
