      Gabby thought that moving overseas in her thirties would be the start of her main-character era. Instead, she finds herself avoiding eye contact with magpies, apologising to mannequins and not quite sure who she is on her own. Can this people pleaser finally stop and learn to please…herself? A fast-paced and joyful stand up show about finding your way back.
