Fresh from her sold-out launch in Dublin, Anne Gildea brings her hilarious comedy ‘How to get the Menopause & Enjoy it’ to Backstage on Friday, February 10.
Join her on this fabulous, informative, laugh-out-loud, trip through all things Menopause.
Anne brings her keen comedic skills to this topic that affects 51% of the population yet is still treated like a mystery.
What is it? Why does it happen? How come it barely bothers some women and shakes others to the core? Why is it named after men? Why didn’t our mammies warn us about it? Is there anything you can do about it? And why, oh why is so little known about this inevitable phase of lady-life?
Anne answers all these questions and more, as she brings TMI to a whole new level.
Katy Hayes of the Independent says Anne, “captures perfectly the dilemma of Irish women of her generation, hobbled by the micro-oppressions of conservative Catholicism, and engaging in a lifetime of micro-battles against this force. I am definitely the target audience for this show, and it spoke directly to me. But if any young people want to know what’s really going on in their mams’ and aunties’ secret lives, this funny and taboo-busting work blasts the lid right off.”
Anne Gildea is a founder member of comedy ‘super-group’ The Nualas and a well-known comedienne and writer.
Most recently, her memoir, I’ve got Cancer. What’s Your Excuse inspired the feature film The Bright Side which premiered in cinemas last year and is now streaming on Amazon Prime.
