Older, Bolder, Wiser is a lively journey of storytelling and stand-up comedy as broadcaster and writer, Barbara Scully, muses on some of the absurdities of being a woman along with the surprising joy of getting older. She says that once you stop paying attention to the messages about anti-ageing and how women should be in the world, getting older is great.
Barbara Scully is a well known writer, author and broadcaster. A familiar voice on radio she is one half of the ‘So You Think You Are An Adult’ slot (with Declan Buckley) every week on the Moncrieff Show on Newstalk. Barbara published her first book, called ‘Wise Up – Wisdom, Power, and the Older Woman’ in 2022, and ever since she has been on a mission to change the narrative around ageing particularly for women. In 2023 she dipped her toe into the comedy ocean for the first time and realised she could make people laugh. She also realised that comedy was a great way to continue to deliver her message of positive ageing.
We’re delighted to welcome Barbara to the Kilkenny Comedy Club for the first time!
