Tricia McTeague

Liverpool, mid 90s, Cathy Mason a gifted singer/songwriter, receives another ‘rejection’ letter from a Record Company.

Living at home with her loving, yet unfulfilled mother and recently redundant and bitter father, after losing their house and forced to live in council accommodation, is she destined to perform at dingy pubs and clubs for evermore? Will Cathy ever fulfil her dream?

Heart and Soul is the world premiere of a brand new musical set in Liverpool in the mid 1990s. It follows the journey of Liverpool girl, Cathy Mason and her quest for success. Tricia McTeague will take on the role of ‘Cathy’ as you follow her journey that begins and ends on Valentine’s Night at ‘Dacey’s’ a year later.

Set in a time before Pop Idol and X Factor, it is an insight into the difficulties faced when trying to make it into the Music Industry and how constant rejection creates self doubt, leading to disastrous consequences.
