Mrs Churchill- My Life With Winston - Ripon Arts Hub Theatre

Winston Churchill is arguably one of the most famous Englishmen that has ever lived. His inspirational leadership helped win the Second World War, and his parliamentary career of 62 years ensured he was responsible for many momentous decisions. What of Clementine, his wife for 56 years?

They say that behind every great man, there is a great woman. Was this true in Churchill’s case? Did he bully her like he did so many other people? Was he as grumpy and irascible at home as he often was in the House of Commons? Given his strength and conviction, did Clem have any influence on him at all? Or was she ‘the little lady at home’? Winston himself said, “my most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me.”

Liz Grand, whose portrayal of Agatha Christie wowed RTF audiences in 2023, returns with her latest superb, sensitive and informative portrayal.
