‘A passionate and gripping piece of theatre’ LANCASHIRE POST


If you missed Zoe’s funny and extremely moving sell-out show at the Bay Fringe Festival in Morecambe in July, now is the chance to catch up.

Zoe isn’t an alcoholic. Just emotionally dependent on Aldi whisky. Reeling from her mother’s death, she unpicks a life’s work as a carer and the strict religious upbringing she thought she had left behind. 

Adapted from her memoir in progress, this solo show premiered in Montreal and won the 2025 Bay Fringe Festival’s award for ‘Best Local Theatre’.


Zoe Lambert is a writer and a lecturer in creative writing at Lancaster University. She has published many short stories including her linked collection, The War Tour (Comma Press). She also specialises in writing for wellbeing. She recently ran the first writing for wellbeing course for survivors of religious trauma in the UK.
