After the mad success of ‘Grumpy Old Women’, self appointed Grumpy team captain Jenny Eclair has ditched the other ‘old bags’ and decided to go solo.

After six years of writing books (OK one book), hosting radio shows, doing plays and hanging out with the ‘Grumpy posse’, Eclair returns to the regions with a brand new stand-up show. (Obviously she won’t be standing up all the time; she’ll need to sit down now and again to stop her ankles swelling).

So… expect lots of stuff about being on the mad side of forty, the odd joke about front bottoms and a bit of swearing …oh yes and she will be wearing her shiny new jacket that she got in the sale at Selfridges (down from £199.00 to £49.99 – what a bargain!).

If you are going to treat yourself to a ticket, please laugh and clap very loudly, as she is a bit deaf and her hormones are all over the place.

Men, accompanied or on the loose, most welcome.
