Batty

Join Batty and her companion Wildthing for gossip, gay abandon, exquisite tenderness and raucous stories (with a side order of ranting), as they explore the magic and power of ageing.

“Sincere, frequently funny and a reminder that there is much more to mid-life than

– The Scotsman
“a bold, funny, and poignant exploration of identity, transformation, and wildness”
– SheffHerd
