Christine was classically trained at LAMDA, way back in the dark ages of the late 1960s. But her career began before that, playing a Chorus Girl in the musical ‘Funny Girl’,at the Palace Theatre, Westcliff.
Christine’s first love is live theatre, and she has been lucky enough to enjoy a long career in Regional Theatre, including seasons at The National Theatre, and Chichester Festival Theatre.
She had a long association with The Mercury Theatre, in Colchester where she played a variety of leading ladies from Winnie in Becket’s HAPPY DAYS, to Lady Bracknell in THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST, from Madame Arcarti in BLITHE SPIRIT to The Mother in BLOOD WEDDING
( for which she received a Barclays/TMA Award nomination) she also played Brutus in an all female production of JULIUS CAESAR.
Christine appeared in a number of now legendary Sunday Afternoon Classic Serials on BBC television, including GREAT EXPECTATIONS, and JANE EYRE. She is a regular contributor to BBC Radio Drama, having been a member of the Radio Drama Company, and played Miss Phyllis Marshall in the Radio 4 series HOMEFRONT.
Most recently she has been working with local writer Nicola Werenowska, on her new play MASKED.
Along with her sister Jules Easlea, Christine is a co founder of JUBILANT PRODUCTIONS, whose inaugural show, MERRY IT WAS TO LAUGH THERE - a reflection on the poetry and words from soldiers of WW1, toured Essex in 2014, and supported the Poppy installation at Shoebury Garrison.
