Pippa Evans Grows Up

Stand-Up Specials

Available for over a year

Pippa Evans has never felt like a grown-up. In theory she's reached the age where you really should, but somehow it's a feeling that's so far eluded her. In this stand-up show she asks what it means to be a grown-up and how you know when you are one. There are lots of markers of adulthood, standing up for yourself is a sure sign that you're a step further towards it so perhaps this is a trick she must master. With stand- up and music from her house band, Pippa involves her audience in her journey of self-discovery. Star of the Now Show, Pippa Evans is a fixture at the Edinburgh Festival with sell-out shows and is a co-founder of the Sunday Assembly. Produced by Alison Vernon-Smith. First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in May 2018,
