The Feisty Feminist. The Hot Lesbian. The Desperate Cougar. The Deranged Mother.
Doon Mackichan is best known for her comedy characters, but throughout her career there are parts she's refused to take and stereotypes she's continually defied.
In My Lady Parts, Doon shares her experience on stage, screen and in real life, examining how our culture still expects women to adhere to certain stereotypes - and punishes those who don't. This is a courageous, vulnerable and empowering account of being a woman in an industry that has been exposed for its deep-rooted sexism.
