Becky Lucas
Talented Young Comedian & Writer
Apparently, Becky Lucas has a notoriously low self-esteem… but when you see her on stage, it’s hard to imagine how that could be the case.
One of Australia’s funniest, most exciting young voices on the comedy scene, this talented RAW Comedy finalist is commanding attention locally and right around the world with solo shows, appearances on the small screen, comedic writing and prolific tweeting.
As a stand up, Becky Lucas has opened for calibre comics including Wil Anderson, Jim Norton, Beth Stelling, Matt Okine and Joel Creasey. She has also performed at the prestigious UCB theatre in Los Angeles, The Melbourne International Comedy Festival and the Edinburgh Fringe.
More about Becky Lucas:

Since then her solos have included Little Bitch, which toured Australia & New Zealand; Cute, Funny, Smart, Sexy, Beautiful – a nod to her notoriously low self esteem – and her debut at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
