I CAN BUY MYSELF FLOWERS...BLURB
Taking its name from Miley Cyrus’ song that became an anthem for single women the world over, I CAN BUY MYSELF FLOWERS is a one-person comedy drama featuring Natalie Jackson, an estate agent in her fifties, who entertains as she reflects on the ups and downs of relationships, children, professional life and her women friendships.
Old enough to be on their second or third marriages, young enough not to be blamed for apartheid and women enough for menopause, Natalie and her five friends adopt Sex-in-the-City as the name for their WhatsApp group. Working in an industry dominated and led by women, inspired by women friends who have achieved professional success and years of therapy have helped Natalie overcome her demons and insecurities rooted in the familiar worlds of patriarchal families and relationships. She is now ready to live on her own terms.
