Elderly Care Entertainer of the Year 2023 (Scotland): Christine Hayward
“Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin.” Christine Hayward brings us back to a decade of her youth. You hear stories of the time, and she does this punctuated with songs.
Tales from her audience are sometimes added to her show. One man recalled, with tears in his eyes, how his mother once made him a coon-skin cap out of her fur coat so he could look like Davy Crockett.
Christine’s show is an intimate recreation of what life was like in the early 1950s.
