Nana Funk: Tough Old Bird
Nana Funk, the Great-Great Grandmother of Good Times, launches Ripon Theatre Festival 2025!
Have you ever noticed those adverts promising to ‘defy the effects of ageing’? Ooh Nana hates them. What about when we get old? Where’s the instruction manual? Who deems what is ‘acceptable behaviour’?
Inspired by real-life events and stories, Nana Funk Tough Old Bird brings a heartfelt musical journey of exploration on how women are viewed in society as they have the absolute gall to get older. This is a brilliant bittersweet comedy drama with lashings of laughter, blistering parody songs, comedy burlesque and a whole lot of heart.
You’ll laugh, you might cry, and you’ll certainly end up joining in. Life is better with this sort of entertainment in the world.
Join us on Thursday 20 March at the Ripon Arts Hub for "Nana Funk Tough Old Bird" and the launch of Ripon Theatre Festival 2025
