A light-hearted dedication to the songs and stories enlightening us on the true meaning of being a woman. Featuring the comical best from opera, operetta, music theatre and jazz.

 

A little about the show..
To the best and most experienced of us the wants and needs of women (often two very different things) have been a mystery to men (and to quite a few women) throughout the ages.

​

In our time we spend thousands on magazines, self-help books and Oprah’s Book Club trying to find the answers. But the answer has been staring us in the face and assaulting our ears for centuries. While women almost never got in parliament or became queens, denied places at university and wrote their books under pseudonyms, they were always centre stage on…the stage.

 

Vanessa West and Angus Grant (baritone) have cherry-picked for your aural pleasure the very best songs and duets music has to offer, and hand wrapped them with a sweet sprinkling of witty repartee.
