Join Karen for the honest and hilarious story of her cervical cancer extravaganza. In her debut show, she will share with you the gore and glory of getting a nasty surprise at 24, and why laughter is a lifesaver. Through comedy, storytelling and a poem to Svetlana the Tumour, you will spend 50 minutes with someone who has found a light at the end of her vaginal tunnel. Tumour Has It challenges the stigma of having a gynaecological disease, raises awareness, celebrates life and loudly tells cancer that it was barking up the wrong chuff.
