Yvonne Hughes: Absolutely Riddled
Yvonne Hughes • Semi-professional company
About Yvonne Hughes
Absolutely Riddled is a fresh and bold dive into the reality of living with cystic fibrosis — a journey that is as phlegmy as it is funny. Yvonne Hughes shares her absurd story from miracle meds to magazine spreads with a candour rarely found in glossy publications. This solo stand-up show promises an unapologetic, hilarious take on life as Yvonne navigates her fifties, transforming from someone barely surviving to fully thriving. The show runs for 60 minutes at the Snug venue and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.
Why see this show?
A rare combination of genuine candour and genuine comedy, tackling a condition that rarely gets this kind of honest, funny treatment. Yvonne Hughes brings warmth and nerve to material that most people would rather avoid.
