Carolann’s awakening is sudden and all-consuming. She stumbles out of her superwoman bubble to discover a crumbling marriage, a teenage daughter with whom she can’t communicate, and an overwhelming job, all while peri-menopause has a grip on her body.

She discovers her sexuality is fluid and soul music is the language of her soul. Hypnotic melodies, searing honesty and humour will take you on a journey of self-discovery with Carolann. A moving play about menopause and female sexuality.

Paula David is an actor, poet, singer/songwriter and playwright.  Her plays have been performed at the Brighton Festival, Camden Festival, Fly Festival Bristol, Nottingham Playhouse, Arnolfini Arts Centre in Bristol, Soho Theatre, and Pleasance Theatre Edinburgh, among others. Paula creates an original soundtrack for each play and is passionate about writing the untold stories of Black women.
