Sonia's balaclava

MOL.2023.34.3

Information

To coincide with Liverpool hosting the Eurovision Song Contest 2023, ‘A Thong for Europe’, a show packed with Eurovision hits debuted at the Royal Court. Written by local playwright, Jonathan Harvey, it of course featured 'Our Sonia'. Keddy Sutton played the legend, who first performed her hit ‘Better the Devil You know’ at Eurovision back in 1993, and at the 2023 contest. Keddy wore this pink balaclava when Sonia needed to stay incognito, especially around Lulu, the main character, who Sonia had taken out a restraining order against in 2002!
