Samantha Womack is back in Liverpool. This time playing Pippa in the award-winning theatre production, Dear England. 🥳

The show is on right now at Liverpool Empire and is already getting great reviews. The powerful hit play tells the story of the impact of Gareth Southgate’s leadership. 

Sam tells us why this show has connected with audiences across the country, even if you’re not a football fan. And Sam says it will most definitely connect with Liverpool audiences too.

The hilarious & emotional Memory of Water is on now at Liverpool’s Everyman Theatre and you just need to come and see it! 🎭🤩

This is a major 30th anniversary revival of Shelagh Stephenson’s The Memory of Water, which won the Olivier Award for Best Comedy.

It’s a brilliantly funny yet deeply moving play about families, grief, and the unreliable narratives we inherit.
