She is one half of the very successful comedy team, "Ronna and Beverly", with Jessica Chaffin. Beverly Live! Jamie Denbo, writer/producer (Grey's Anatomy), presents her alter ego Beverly (meddling mother to all) as she takes audiences on a comedic rollercoaster ride through her golden years in California, exploring everything from sound baths to how not to get cancelled. She even has a system in place where a bell will ding if she says something "problematic". (No trigger warnings needed!) Join Beverly on her journey of starting over at age 70(ish), becoming an entrepreneur and STILL parenting her twin girls, Lainie and Rachelle, now 37 – one still thin, one still a little heavy. DING!
