The theme of this year’s International Women’s Day is #BreakTheBias #iwd2022

Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can #BreakTheBias.

Menopause Party is a one woman comedy show spurring conversation around the menopause. Dolly Slatemen, Essex pub landlady, the alter ego of Debbie Baisden (who also happens to be a pub landlady) is kicking taboo into touch and manipulating any angle she can to get people talking about this phenomenon that affects half the planet. Through the characters Doctor Meena Poors, Judge Mental and Andrew O’ Poer, we see the alter egos of the alter ego! Edu-taining their way through a subject that is still considered taboo.

After the menopause party, Professor Joyce Harper will share some of her research on women’s views of the menopause and hopefully the audience will share some of their menopause stories.
