A collision of storytelling, opera, virtuoso singing, inspiration, and audience collaboration. When soprano Katy Lees was given months to live, her defiant response was: 'Fine, I'll have 600 of them.' She had to decide: if she lived, would she ever sing again? Twenty years later, this rare survivor of mesothelioma tells her captivating story, featuring music that rescued her. This extraordinary one-woman show, told with humour and honesty, is her Fringe debut. 'Will tear you apart and put you back together again, with renewed faith in the compassion of human nature' (Audience Review).
