About the show

Mrs Gary Breath is a solo comedy show written and performed by Ellie Ross, directed by Liam Williams. When Annie's parents offer her a life-changing sum to get married by the age of thirty-five, she can't refuse — even if she definitely should. Part romcom and part social autopsy, the show satirises the pressure to tick life's boxes and explores the cost of fitting in and the freedom of opting out. Big-hearted, big-character storytelling that takes an honest look at how we define success.

Why see this show?

Sharp, character-driven comedy that pokes at the life-milestone trap without preaching. Ellie Ross brings real warmth and wit to a relatable premise — and the script clearly has teeth.
