One of Ireland’s most exciting stand-ups grapples with the big questions around turning 40, presented by Chuckle Busters


It’s the post-apocalyptic world. There’s only one contraceptive pill left. Do you give it to your 19-year-old daughter or keep it for yourself? Is it better to be a 40-year-old grandmother or a 40-year-old new Mum?

These are the dilemmas facing Emma Doran aged 39 and 7/8’s, even though the most obvious outcome is neither. If turning 40 is the start of something new, what is it the end of? …ah here, where’s me vape?

Emma Doran is one of the most exciting stand-ups to emerge from Ireland’s shores in years. She’s crammed so much into the last 20 years of her life that she is now officially the voice of 3 generations.
