Lucy Porter4 September 2009
The loveable and hugely likeable Lucy Porter has been on tour with her 2008 sell out Edinburgh show 'The Bare Necessities,' her seventh solo show, to venues across the UK in 2009 - a stripped-down hour of nakedly funny stand-up. Last year's show 'Lucy Porter's Love In' subsequently sold out nationwide on a 40 date tour.
Since 2001, Lucy has been a huge hit with comedy audiences up and down the country with her distinctive, bouncy, feel-good comedy. She remains amongst the most sought-after comedy writers in Britain and was one of the lead writers on ITV1's prime-time Sunday night satirical animation series 'Headcases'.
She's been responsible for turning Dames Helen Mirren and Judi Dench into mouthy Croydon girls, Robert Mugabe into a West Country farmer, and Angelina Jolie into an evil sweatshop gangmaster. Lucy has also written for Johnny Vaughan, Adam and Joe, Griff Rhys Jones and even Jimmy Tarbuck.
Lucy will be performing at LIVEstock 2009 - a unique evening of comedy and music in support of Friends of the Earth's Food Chain Campaign.
