In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Tamm Reynolds (@MidgitteBardot)

Tamm Reynolds is a study in contrasts: grounded, observant, quietly sharp. By day they navigate the ordinary with practiced grace, cataloguing human habits and social theatre; By night they become Midgitte Bardot, their alter ego. Brazen, glittering, unapologetically theatrical.

Midgitte turns wit into spectacle, exaggeration into truth, daring audiences to laugh and look closer. Where Tamm listens, Midgitte proclaims; where Tamm edits, Midgitte improvises.

Together they form a single creative engine, translating lived detail into performance. One gathers the raw material of life; the other distils it into charisma, comedy, and joy. Exist to survive, subvert expectations, and celebrate reinvention.

Tamm Reynolds’ latest solo show is ‘Shooting from Below’ at the Purcell Room (Southbank) from 9-11 April 2026
