Westdal & Wayward

Two middle-aged women, who between them have 3 dogs, 2 kids but only 1 fully functioning pelvic floor. They’re a tiny bit cross and they’re not going to take it anymore, so they’re dishing it out instead. Sharing their pearls of wisdom through chatter and song, like an unholy pairing of Mary Poppins and Eartha Kitt, these Agony Aunts at Large advise the grammatically challenged, console the martyrs of menopause and confess to being more than a little bit Mad about the Mogg. Beth Hayward and Freyja Westdal met as aspiring young actresses on a tour where Beth was Freyja’s understudy; a fact that has never been allowed to be forgotten, in a friendship lasting over 25 years. Together they have supported Dean Friedman on tour, performed alongside and written songs for 4 Poofs and a Piano, and 2019 saw their sell out Edinburgh Fringe debut. Audience reviewers urged others to join in the “glamorous hilarity” and enjoy an evening with these “Fantastically funny & incredibly clever” ladies. 2019 Top 3 finalists for the Funny Women Best Show Award
