Show notes
Today I am sitting down with life long stand up comedian Carole Montgomery. Carole is a classic in show biz, a Brooklynite through and through, she has performed all over the United States. Being a stand up comedian has been her fulltime job. Until she turned 50.Her environment signaled her silently but clearly, that her time is done, over, chapter closed. She shifted and worked as a producer, comedy teacher, and writer to stay connected in the business.At 59 she had a break through idea: Funny Women of A Certain Age. A stand up comedy show featuring older comedian women. With a talent pool of about 100 artists, Carole has been producing shows for the past ten years, TV channel SHOWTIME made three Comedy Specials with Funny Women of A Certain Age. Listen to a conversation about ageism, about how funny never gets old, and about facing the truth. Carole loves playing for younger audiences, she is not afraid, as they look at her as though she's Yoda. Anything is possible really. Nothing is a matter of age, but of spirit and choice.Season 5 is supported by eponymous London based jewellery brand TILLY SVEAAS!Go to www.tillysveaas.com and use my code SHIFTHAPPENS at checkout for 15% off your first purchase.
