About

Hot flush or hot topic? Why is something that half the world goes through still shrouded in silence? Mariella Frostrup is here to crack it wide open—one night, one conversation, one laugh at a time.

This isn't just another evening out. Cracking the Menopause: One Night at a Time is the fierce, funny, and fearlessly honest live event that's about to change everything you thought you knew about the transition.

Led by the brilliant broadcaster and author Mariella Frostrup and co-written by journalist and author Alice Smellie, this groundbreaking show tackles menopause head-on with the wit, wisdom, and raw honesty it deserves. Dismantling centuries of silence and misinformation Mariella is joined by celebrated actress Gina Bellman (Coupling, Leverage), who brings breathtaking testimonies to life with a power that will leave you speechless…and heard.

After all: "We are not overheating or inherently cold, we are not hysterics or boiling vats of toxic poisons, we are not dried up or washed up—we are simply menopausal."

From the sleepless nights that steal your sanity to the centuries of hysteria that stole women's voices, to the truly horrible history of the menopause—nothing is off-limits. This is menopause stripped of shame, soaked in science, and served with huge heart.

This is an occasion for anyone who's been through it, is going through it, or loves someone who is.
