The story

There's a documentary about a guy in Montana who was electrocuted by a bear... I'm not that guy.

But I'm in the documentary, and this show is about my part in that story.

It's wildly honest and totally unfiltered: relationships, the rollercoaster of being a caregiver, and the utter madness of making a multi-award-winning documentary under... let's just say, unique circumstances.

But ultimately it's a feel-good show. There's the joy of befriending your nipple hairs, the surprising benefit of sleeping in an elk, and being egged on by a ghost sperm. And, of course, a few mentions of tea.

A stand-up storytelling show. Mostly laughs, a few lumps in the throat, all true. You don't need to have seen the film.

What you're getting into

This is the true story of a caregiver. It's a love story, a cheating story and a survival story. Expect graphic medical detail right next to very frank sex stories, a lot of absurdity, and the running commentary in my head that probably should have stayed there. It's about care, injury, loss and love, and it's about failing forward and laughing your way through it. Full of trials and tribulations, but ultimately uplifting.

The first run

It started life as Happy Tea.

The show debuted as Happy Tea at the 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, at Just the Tonic at The Mash House, after a five-star review at Livingston Fringe. Same story, new name, and it's still growing.

The film behind it

Charged

The award-winning documentary about the accident, reviewed by The Hollywood Reporter and streaming on Amazon. It's fun to watch before you see the show, but you don't need to. The film shows what we went through. The show shares what I went through behind the scenes, and the failing-forward hilarity of being a caregiver.

Synopsis

HAPPY TEA is a wildly honest, comedic, and totally unfiltered one-woman storytelling show. Equal parts heart and chaos, it dives headfirst into relationships, the rollercoaster of being a caregiver, and the utter madness of making the multi-award winning documentary ‘Charged’ under... let’s just say, unique circumstances. 

But, ultimately, Happy Tea is a feel good show — there’s also the joy of befriending your nipple hairs, the surprising benefit of sleeping in an elk, and the bizarre moments of being egged on by a ghost sperm. And, of course, there’s a few mentions about tea 🤭

Inspiration

From 25 to 35 years old my life was pretty crazy, so much so that a multi-award winning feature length documentary film Charged was made about it.

The documentary is serious… the special is not… it’s my comedic take on real life events what went on during that time which were not featured in the documentary.

I’ve written Happy Tea as a stand alone piece so that no one has to have seen the documentary in order for the show to make sense or for it to be funny 😊
