At 20, Liz Hicklin fell madly in love with a young poet named Ted Hughes. Then he met Sylvia Plath, and literary history took another path. 📚

At 93, Liz performed stand-up for the first time. At 95, she’s taking centre stage to tell the much bigger story of her life.

'Sylvia Plath Stole My Boyfriend' is funny, fierce and gloriously alive. It’s a story about love, loss and becoming.

As part of the Seniors Festival
Details: Tuesday 27 October, 2-3pm at the Bowery Theatre, 33 Princess Street, St Albans. Free of charge, bookings required
