Share
Davina Bentley brings her debut solo hour to the Edinburgh Fringe, interlacing stand-up with sketches as she navigates being a woman in her early 40s and the identity that comes with it. Davina discovers that Henry VIII was 44 years old when he started executing his wives, giving her two years to discover exactly who she is. The show tackles modern womanhood, perimenopause, looksmaxxing, and the question of visibility as she slalom rides through status and ageing. Bentley is known for viral sketch parodies with over 40 million views online and has written for Radio 4 shows including Dead Ringers and The News Quiz.
