Cast as Lil Miller in 'Kinderstransport'

 
 
 

I had the joy of playing Lil Miller in Diane Samuels’ Kinderstransport in a run at The South London Theatre produced by Everything Is Rosie. We inhabited the story of Eva, a young girl evacuated from Nazi Germany & sent to live with a foster family in London. My character Lil fosters her & they form a close but complex relationship. As Eva grows she must untangle what her new life offers in relation to the past she tries to leave behind. 

We see her as a young girl, an adolescent & a mother with her own child. As an adult she has changed her name to Evelyn and denies her roots. When her daughter discovers old letters and photos in the attic, she is forced to confront the echoes of her past and to reveal a dark secret about the lengths she has gone to to keep everything hidden.
