Last time I saw Katherine Ryan onstage in 2018 she was singing the praises of singledom. “Men are like dolphins, best enjoyed on holiday,” she said. A lot has happened since then. A virus has swept across the planet and Ryan has embraced marriage, as she explains in her new show, Missus.
Things did not always pan out as planned during the pandemic for the sassy, sardonic stand-up. Missus charts the bullet points of the recent years in the life of Ryan. Not just nuptials, but also giving birth to a second child and vanquishing a burglar. Each story is jam-packed with punchlines and slickly delivered.
