Sarah Millican

Coming Oct. 16 and Oct. 21! When Sarah Millican was a child, she wouldn’t say boo to a goose. Quiet at school, not many friends, no boobs ‘til she was 16. Now? NOW she is loud, with good friends, a cracking rack and goose booing all over the shop. In Late Bloomer, Sarah’s brand-new stand-up show, she explores how one became the other. Plus, lots of stuff about dinners and lady gardens. Come along and join Sarah on her second American tour, laugh at her, with her, beside her.
