Pavilion Theatre presents

Jacqueline Wilson

in conversation with Edel Coffey

Beloved author Jacqueline Wilson has written over 100 books, including the Tracy Beaker series, selling more than forty million copies worldwide. She is a former Children’s Laureate, and in 2008 she was appointed a Dame.

This August sees the release of Picture Imperfect, an adult sequel to her children’s novel, The Illustrated Mum.

Dolphin Westward spent her childhood as the supporting character in the story of her beautiful, wild, volatile mother Marigold. Now 33, she’s painfully aware that not much has changed. She lives in a tiny bedsit, works in a tattoo shop by day and collects her illustrated mum from police stations by night. Can Dol find the strength to forge a brand-new path of her own?

Edel Coffey will join Jacqueline live in conversation at Pavilion Theatre. The Irish journalist and broadcaster has worked as a presenter on RTÉ radio, editor of the Irish Independent Weekend Magazine, and Books Editor of the Irish Independent.
