2023 Edinburgh Fringe
Bridget Christie: Who Am I?
The Taskmaster favourite and star of The Change is hot, but not in a good way. The Foster's Edinburgh Comedy Award-winning comedian cannot ride the motorbike she bought to combat her mid-life crisis because of early osteoarthritis in her hips and RSI in her wrist; and wonders why there are so many films, made by men, about young women discovering their sexuality, but none about middle-aged women forgetting theirs. It's a menopause laugh-a-minute with a confused, furious, sweaty lady who is annoyed by everything. 'A mini-masterpiece' **** (Guardian). 'Razor-sharp, consistently hilarious' **** (Telegraph).
