Kittie co-writes and presents for the 2nd episode of ‘My Alter Ego’ on BBC Radio 4.

‘My Alter Ego’ is a brand new five part series where leaders in a particular field, discuss what life would have been like had they been on a similar life-voyage in another era. In the second episode, Kittie talks of life as a performer/entrepreneur examining the exciting history and parallels of her heroine, Eliza Vestris - the 19th century burlesque star/manageress who broke the mould of her day.
