About My Lady Parts: A Life Fighting Stereotypes: Doon Mackichan with Kieran Hodgson
Beloved actor, comedian and writer Doon Mackichan discusses her smart, fiercely feminist and hilariously titled memoir My Lady Parts, which provides a courageous, vulnerable and empowering account of being a woman in an industry that has been exposed for its deep-rooted sexism.
Doon is best known for her comedy characters in the hugely popular Brass Eye, Smack the Pony and Two Doors Down – but throughout her career there are parts she’s refused to take and stereotypes she's continually defied. In conversation with Two Doors co-star Kieran “Gordon” Hodgson, Doon will share her experiences on stage, screen and in real life to examine how our culture still expects women to adhere to certain stereotypes – and punishes those who don’t.
