Swords Comedy Festival presents Barbara Scully in "BECAUSE I’M WORTH IT" live in the Cock Tavern.
Following on from the success of her first one woman show – ‘Older Bolder Wiser’ – Barbara Scully has a new show in the works called, ‘Because I’m Worth It’.
Building on the themes of ‘Older Bolder Wiser’
and continuing to tell women to embrace getting older and to ignore the nonsense about ‘fighting ageing’, Barbara will once again regale her audience with stories and comedy.
Although the broad theme is ‘on brand’ Barbara says the focus is slightly different.
“I would hesitate to call myself a diva, but you know now that I am in my sixties there is stuff that I no longer tolerate… because I am a woman who has stepped into my matriarchal power and I know my worth!! And it’s a lot. Just like all older women. Although we often don’t realise it. So, I am here to tell all women that they are worth it too”.
Barbara says that being older is delicious especially as you realise what makes you happy and you can indulge yourself a bit more than perhaps ever before. But it can make life unexpectedly complicated and Barbara will regale audiences about the times that this new found sense of her own worth and zero tolerance for stuff that irritates her has gone very wrong. “Regularly things don’t go exactly to plan. Ultimately I am an eejit but I make mistakes so that others don’t have to. Public service right there”.
