About this Event
Single, child free and from working class stock, Maureen Younger reflects on life (her own) romance (or rather lack of it) and ageing (lie about it) and why it’s never a good idea to underestimate a middle-aged woman. Often described as opinionated, always seen as uniquely herself and never seen as a walk over. An hour in her company and you too will want to BE MORE Maureen.
Maureen Younger works as a stand-up comedian and compere all around the UK and abroad and is a regular face at all the major comedy clubs. As an experienced compere, Maureen is known for her quick wit and sharp audience interaction. Her gigs have ranged from being the support act for comedians such as Frankie Boyle, Jen Brister and Shazia Mirza.

· Tickets can be refunded or exchanged no less than 24 hours before the show.
· Line-ups can be subject to change at short notice.
· The show is in two parts separated by an interval. Doors open at 7pm, one hour before the start time of 8pm. Please arrive before the show starts but not before 7pm. Attendees who arrive late will not be granted admission or a refund.
· Don’t talk or heckle during the performances. This rule is NOT optional. It is very distracting for both the performer and other audience members. Some performers (usually the host) might talk to the audience, but otherwise please let the comedians do the talking. Heckling does not ‘help the show’. Think of it like cinema rules: laughter, cheers, applause are all great, but talking or yelling out is not. And another cinema rule…

· This is NOT a standing event. All audience members must be seated while the performance is underway, unless ordering at the bar or using the toilets. When ordering at the bar, please whisper.
· Entrance and exit is via the side door only; please wait outside at the door for ticket check and to be seated by the doorman.
· Tables are limited and you may have to share one. If you choose to sit on a row, please move all the way down to the end and don’t leave empty seats between groups. You may not be able to sit together if the remaining chairs available are spread out. If you are particular about seating we recommend arriving as early as possible.
