As Actress:
“Outstanding... A masterly performance"
Jill Lawrie, Remotegoat

The Herald ****
"Zoie Kennedy lays the ghost of Julie Walters to rest ... The performance charts beautifully Rita's complex voyage of discovery, that delicate balance of innocent excitement of spirit and tough, shrewd Scouse instinct for the bogus or pretentious. Zoie also gives the role an exhilarating physical dimension. Utterly compelling." Ian Barge, The Stage
Directorial & with Twice Shy Theatre:
