Jenny Eclair is back by
popular demand with her "Mid Life Chrisis Show" at St George's Hall,
Liverpool
FOLLOWING a sell out 2016 tour,
professional grumpy old woman, Splash survivor, amateur soup maker, and novice
knitter Jenny Eclair extends her hit tour into the Spring of 2017 and she is
back in Liverpool. Younger than Madonna, but eats crisps and likes wine,
too young to die, but too old to stand near the edge in case she gets dizzy and
falls over, professional Grumpy old woman Jenny Eclair announces:- 'How to
Be a Middle Aged Woman (Without Going Insane),' which returns to St
George's Hall's Concert Room, on Sunday, 5 March 2017, by popular demand. You
are most welcome to join her, just button your cardi up properly and wipe that
lipstick off your teeth.
Tackling questions such as, is swearing better than crying, HRT or boxercise;
you decide, Jenny takes to the stage to explore some of the boll*cks that
surrounds the ageing process. Why are so many young people idiots, is Chardonnay
medicinal and how many episodes of ‘Bake Off' does it take to lower your blood
pressure? Watch a woman happy to have lost her dignity years ago, lob a few
grenades back in the face of ageism. Semi bearded and suffering from outbreaks
of gout and hysteria, Jenny puts middle age under the microscope and decides
whether to laugh, cry or buy a dachshund!
