Following her sold out performance at Kingshill House last November, Lizzie Bean brings back her brilliant show Phukets & Rainbows to Dursley in just a few weeks time!

Chaos, comedy and the cathartic collide, in this one woman show…

Where do we find ourselves as we hit midlife? What lessons brought us here? Who are we underneath the lanyard, the jumper dress, the yoga mat, the leisure wear, the chin hair, the wine... From the highs to the lows, of this ordinary girl’s commitment, to living an extraordinary life. This show is a heartfelt invitation to you, to come ride the rollercoaster. In the hope, that you too will see how enough you are!

The show is written and performed, by Lizzie Bean, a mum, wife and friend. A speaker, mentor and twizzler. A dreamer, and believer in ordinary magic. Just a
girl. On a mission. To live…
