JESSICA WALKER
INTERVIEW ROXY BOURDILLON
Jessica Walker makes musical theatre about forgotten women of the past. Her latest show, All I Want Is One Night, centres around sultry songstress and artist’s muse Suzy Solidor. Although you might never have heard of her, Suzy was a megastar in the 1930s. She was also wonderfully outrageous, even by today’s standards. She sang explicit ditties about lesbian sex, had multiple female lovers at the same time and regularly posed in the nuddy. I couldn’t wait to find out more about this eccentric star of yesteryear and Jessica’s exciting new play.
