If one thing is evident about this year’s Fringe is that there is a pattern with a lot of shows talking about therapy experiences, how to be a better person, how to develop etc. With a show title called Too Late, Baby it is easy to go in with assumptions about what this show is about and whilst part of this is true it is not the whole story.
Michelle Shaughnessy show is inspiring, it is a show that has a lot of content that really can bring optimism and relation to what women can experience when they get to a certain age. It can be really hard to feel like you can still achieve your dreams after 35 but it is possible and this show explore the ways Michelle has done this.
The show takes you on a journey or stories of Michelle’s personal experiences and how she has adapted to living in the United Kingdom after moving here from Canada and adjusting to the realities of life.
This is not just a show for women, it is also for everyone. There are many hilarious parts and the thing that makes this show stand out is the fact that Michelle is very good at blending stand up with a sense of drama.
A real heart warming show that will make you look at life differently whilst also laughing along to silly anecdotes along the way..
Rating: ****’ 4.5 stars
