Catherine took her debut solo show, Immaculate, to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2018. Immaculate received widespread acclaim, with The Times describing it as "the sort of perfectly structured Edinburgh debut you always hope for and rarely get to see." Catherine returned to the festival in 2019 with her second hour-long show, Lemon. It enjoyed a month of sold-out performances and excellent reviews before being brought to jam-packed audiences at London's Soho Theatre. Catherine will tour Lemon in the UK in 2020.
