Kate Mosse: Book Signing
Wednesday 15th March 2023, 4.30pm (approx)
P&G Wells Bookshop, 11 College Street, Winchester.
Kate Mosse, international bestselling author and founder director of the Women’s Prize for Fiction, will be embarking on her first ever theatre tour throughout 2023 – Warrior Queens & Quiet Revolutionaries: How Women (Also) Built the World. Starting on 28th Feb, she’ll be performing at 30 theatres nationwide, and will be at the Theatre Royal, Winchester on Wednesday 15th March. She will be popping into P & G Wells Bookshop on College Street at around 3pm (tbc) to sign copies of her books.
Kate’s show, through storytelling, music and images, is part detective story, part love letter to history, and part celebration of trail-blazing (but forgotten) women throughout history. Inspired by Kate’s bestselling, acclaimed book, Warrior Queens & Quiet Revolutionaries: How Women (Also) Built the World, this show will surprise, challenge and perhaps even encourage some audience members to undertake a little family history of their own…
Over the course of her performance, Kate will feature a joyous and diverse cast of characters, some unknown and some legendary: from a 13th century Mongolian warrior princess and American conservationist, to a Tibetan Buddhist nun, freedom fighter and a Greek naval commander. There is even the inventor of the dishwasher in the show!

‘Uncontrollable Women’ is a history of radical, reformist and revolutionary women between the outbreak of the French Revolution in 1789 and the passing of the Great Reform Act in 1832. Very few of them are well-known today; some were unknown even in their own day. All of them contributed something to the world we now inhabit. At a time when women were supposed to leave politics to men they spoke, wrote, marched, organised, asked questions, challenged power structures, sometimes went to prison and even died. History has not usually been kind to them, and they have frequently been pushed into asides or footnotes, dismissed as secondary, or spoken over, for, or through by men and sometimes other women. In this book, they take centre stage in both their own stories and those of others, and in doing so bring different voices to the more familiar accounts of the period.
