Her last production was for JADA, a one woman show called Josephine's Night Out.
President of JADA, Carlette Beharrie, remembers Christine as an exceptionally talented individual.
"In theatre she has been for the last thirty odd years one of the most outstanding stalwards and actresses, all the producers and writers that she worked with were always in awe of her talent and work ethics, she promoted professionalism in everything that she did and she was very very thorough about it" said Ms Beharrie.

"Everytime that we needed to meet to have a discussion and she came up with workable ideas, ideas that could have been implemented right away.
