No subject is off limits when it comes to Hormonal Housewives.
The no-holds-barred show blasts its way through a catalogue of women’s bits - from weight gain and weight loss to mood swings, housework, men, going out and chocolate... it’s all there.
It made its debut in 2012 and toured again in 2013, but is back with a refreshed script, ready for 2019.
Co-writer and performer Julie Coombe said: “John and I have updated the script to reflect the latest developments in communication, social media, going to the gym, and even hair! For instance social media has grown so much since 2013.
“Now the language changes daily and it’s often incomprehensible. We document our entire lives online while you’re now considered a total dinosaur if you use Facebook! Selfies are in, dating websites are out, dating apps are in and you have to learn which way to swipe or you could be in trouble!”
It stars Vicki Michelle, best known for her role in ‘Allo ‘Allo back in the 1980s.
She now also hosts her own weekly radio show, Vix Mix, on Phoenix 98FM. Patron of two young people’s theatre schools in London and Kent, she was made an MBE in 2010 for her services to charity.
She is joined in the show by Josephine Partridge, who is on her first theatrical tour, and Julie Coombe, writer, actor and comedian.
Directed by David Janson, the show is at the Orchard Theatre, Dartford on Monday, April 29 and at Margate Winter Gardens on Sunday, May 12.
