Katie Lees tragically died on the 4th of August 2021 from thrombosis with thrombocytopenia caused by the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Katie was set to be the first actor back on stage at Flight Path Theatre just as soon as our doors reopened. Katie was to present her play called Temporary, which she wrote and produced and was, like Katie, full of guts, humour, compassion, tenacity and a reflection of humankind.
Katie spent her life making connections, with the natural world around her and the thousands of people she encountered on her travels. Katie did not waste her energy on trivial things like a stable income or the property market, she poured her energy into creating theatre and more specifically, she had begun to hone in on comedy and gosh could she make people laugh!
The Katie Lees Fellowship is designed to support a young female/female identifying theatre maker.
More info soon.
