75-Year-Old Reveals Plans for Strip Show

A 75-year-old stripper is set to shock audiences at the Edinburgh festival as she takes her clothes off to challenge society’s obsessions with youthful good looks.

Lynn Ruth Miller, a former journalist from San Francisco, will celebrate her ageing body in the show Ageing is Amazing.

Ms Miller reportedly said: “I look like an old lady, I know I do, but I never suffer pain, I never get tired and it is so exhilarating to communicate with people.

“When I’m on stage , I’m talking to the world, saying ‘Don’t sit in your rocking chair – get out there and live’.”

Taking her clothes off to Strip Polka, her show see her left standing in front of audiences in underwear decorated with a fringe, bells and feathers.
