Australian outlets report that 95-year-old comedian Liz Hicklin is presenting a new one-woman show that blends humour with personal storytelling. Across the coverage, the show is described as “fun-filled” and centered on Hicklin’s wry observations about life, delivered in a comedic, solo format.
A key element highlighted by all sources is Hicklin’s account connecting her to literary figures Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes. The reporting states that Hicklin tells audiences that Plath “stole” her boyfriend, and that she says Ted Hughes was once her lover. The articles frame these claims as part of Hicklin’s performance and narrative rather than as independently verified historical findings.
While the outlets differ little in emphasis, they consistently focus on the same themes: Hicklin’s age and continued energy, the one-person structure of the show, and her use of well-known names from literary history as part of her comedic material. Details on venues, dates, and broader production context are not provided in the supplied excerpts.
