Armed with a surreal sense of reality, a degree in astrophysics and a banjo, Kate might be dangerous if she were an inch or two taller. As it is, she’s returning to Edinburgh with Schrödinger’s Cat and the European premiere of her solo outing: Moon Dog. And do ask her what a moon dog is... Born in London, Kate’s been working in southern California for 12 years as an actor, filmmaker, writer and stand-up comedian of note. Selected by Mitzi Shore to perform regular gigs at the Hollywood Comedy Store, Kate’s also a regular feature of the iconic Icehouse in Pasadena (where she produces a monthly show), The Hollywood Improv, and of smaller, just as groovy, venues around Los Angeles. She’s also a member of Tim Robbins’ elite Actor’s Gang, and has appeared on stage in several productions with the LA Women’s Shakespeare Company, most notably as Macbeth – which appeared at the Edinburgh Fringe after a run at London’s Warehouse. As a comedian and actor in Los Angeles, Kate has covered lots of artistic ground brilliantly, with wonderful reviews by both the media and her peers. She’s now returning to the UK for good, accompanied by her feisty charm and ravenous wolf-dog.
