About Seriously Funny Business
The Midlife Mind Flip is Sharon VS's debut solo stand-up show, presented by Seriously Funny Business at The Snug. Sharon turns personal upheaval — divorce, redundancy, cancer, and discovering she's queer, all in the same year — into a confessional comedy. The show is hilarious and poignant, unsparing and wildly optimistic, described as a guide to finding more joy in life by daring to be a little more free. It runs 60 minutes and is suitable for ages 16 and over.
Why see this show?
Genuinely personal material delivered with warmth and wit — this is the kind of honest, first-person storytelling that makes the Fringe worth attending. Sharon turns a year of genuine chaos into something moving and funny in equal measure.
