Simone is getting older. She knows it, her body knows it, and her phone knows it. Its constant updates smugly remind her she doesn’t understand it, or anything much anymore. And she doesn’t want to.

In her stand-up show, Simone takes a sharp, hilarious look at the slow unravelling of patience that comes with age - and the swift decline of standards all around us.

With a blend of biting wit and self-awareness, Simone vents about a world that seems to be proudly getting worse. Incompetence isn’t hidden anymore; it’s celebrated. And technology isn’t making her life easier. She can’t remember if she took her medication that morning, how is she supposed to remember seventeen passwords?

Simone would love to be a better person - calmer, kinder, more tolerant – but frankly, people make that difficult. Animals, on the other hand? Wonderful. When her cat ignores her, at least he doesn’t follow up with a Facebook post about the status of their relationship.

This is a show about aching bodies and aching patience, about trying (and failing) to rise above irritation.

Darkly funny, honest and relatable, Simone Amohanga delivers a show for anyone who’s looked around in 2026 and thought, “The end of the world is nigh. And maybe that’s not a bad thing”.
