LipService presents Funny Stuff Written & performed by Sue Ryding

Sue Ryding is one half of legendary comedy duo LipService. In 2022 her comedy partner Maggie Fox died and Sue was left with a shipping container full of stage props, costumes, wigs, hats, shoes, sheep, you name it.

This show looks at all the “stuff” we accumulate, hoard and hate to let go. In this humorous and creative response to grief, Sue struggles to part with a life sized stuffed sheep, a badger onesie, some ruby slippers, a sinking bog, Charlotte Bronte’s knickers and a host of soft toys.

Touring anecdotes are combined with archive footage from LipService shows.

Not all the items will be making it back up the loft ladder, so the audience is invited to take something home. Come along and help Sue on her journey of letting go.
