Comedic Brilliance. Unique Talent. Candid Approach

Bee is a Dynamic Surprise Package!

Despite her diminutive size, Bee Chapman gets attention. A woman of many talents, she has earned respect in the industry as a performer as well as an event director.

At just 1,39 m tall, Bee Chapman is living, dynamic proof that size doesn’t count! Throughout life, she has never allowed height to get the better of her. Enormously popular through her years at Technikon and Varsity, friends soon learned never to call her ‘cute.’  She chose a tough career and made it BIG, achieving more than many of her taller counterparts.

Now Bee has turned her comedy and performance talents to the story of her life. Written and directed by foremost SA playwright Greig Coetzee, “Tall Story” is the hit one-woman motivational show that will have you rolling with laughter. But it will also inspire you to overcome challenges and reach for the stars.

“This pint sized dynamo laughs, sings and bounces her way through her one-woman motivational show that includes everything from why she hates Barbie to her version of the Lord of the Rings (no prizes for guessing who plays the hobbit..)”

If you are looking for a fresh, funny and totally real approach to Motivation to inspire your people, look no further than “Tall Story” starring Belinda Chapman.
