Dates & times
Vivid, rebellious and joyful - Mid Life is a frank, comedic exposé of menopausal midlife.
Join us as we laugh, roar and disco dance our way through our midlife!
Sold out in venues across the UK in 2020, this rewritten and revamped, upbeat, life-affirming show is packed with razor sharp humour and disco. It draws its themes from real life experiences of women in midlife and concludes with a 1hr dance party for the audience and cast.
"We made Mid Life because when I hit menopause I felt lost, anxious, unsure and overwhelmed by what was happening. This is the show I wish I had seen as I entered into the transformation of peri-menopause and menopause."Claire Hodgson, Joint Artistic Director Diverse City
Mid Life is a Diverse City show, in association with Theatre Royal Plymouth. Mid Life was originally developed in 2019 in partnership with Bristol Old Vic Ferment. The work in progress played at Ferment, High Tide Festival and Brixton in 2019. In 2020, the show played to packed out houses at Weston Studio, Bristol Old Vic and The Pit Barbican Theatre London.
"Diverse City pull no punches here, but in this brutally honest exposé of midlife menopausal crisis, there is something endearingly human about Claire, Jacqui and Karen’s stories."StageTalk Magazine
"Mid Life is filled with a feeling of genuine and sincere love, both for those onstage and in the audience, that many shows aim for but few manage to create."Exeunt Magazine
