A live comedy show in which Jo Brand ponders how to age her own way, drawing on dispatches from the second half of life, from hospitals and pharmacies to the joy of becoming an 'invisible' older woman. It is no pep talk and will not tell you how to live longer or better. Brand is a BAFTA-winning star and co-writer of Getting On, familiar from Have I Got News for You, Would I Lie to You and Taskmaster. Every ticket includes a copy of her book to collect on the night.
