An Evening with Comedian Suzi Ruffell
Anxiety, Applause, and Life’s Big Questions, answered by Suzi Ruffell
From gracing the stage at Live at the Apollo and appearing on The Jonathan Ross Show, the award-winning stand up comedian is now heading to The Old Woollen here in Farsley. Suzi will share some stories from her brutally honest, funny and often moving memoir.
From masking anxiety with musical theatre and struggling to find her groove at school, on stage, and in her love life, to (eventually) coming out, falling in love, and becoming a parent, Suzi is set to lay her life bare with trademark wit, verve and style.
In her book, Suzi winningly tells her life story and asks a host of experts to answer the tricky questions it prompts along the way. We can’t wait to hear the stories behind this one.
