A show about mental load, what to do when you’ve completed parenting and living with a brain of many parts.
Things you can expect:
“a lorry-load of laugh-out-loud stories, observations and metaphors” ( Chortle).
“the honed ability to extract nuance from wide-reaching well-observed issues that are both unique and very relatable.” ( Entertainment Focus)
And if you're really lucky, you might witness my signature move:
“rubs off onto everybody around her.” ( Funny Women).
Things you cannot expect: I will not be bringing a live octopus on stage. Nor a dead one.
Mostly it will just be me trying to make you laugh for an hour. Doesn’t that sound fun? I think so. Join me, as we explore this magnificent beast together (and the octopus).
4.30pm at The Bootlegger
