Alison Larkin – Grief A Comedy
The English American writer/comedian brings her ‘funny, life-affirming show about love, loss and hope’ on tour, fresh from the Soho Theatre, Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour, the Edinburgh Fringe and a sold out US run.
Alison found true love for the first time in her 50s with an Indian climate scientist who had also immigrated to the US. Then he died. Then something wildly unexpected happened. Instead of wanting to hide under the bed and never come out, Alison found herself wanting to live and love more fully than ever before. When Archbishop Desmond Tutu found out about it, he insisted she tell this story as widely as possible ‘because it will bring hope.’
★★★★★ “this is truly a show that could change your outlook on life” Entertainment Now
★★★★ “leaves you believing that joy really can be found after grief” Daily Mail
★★★★ “outstandingly uplifting” Scottish Field
