Lucy Pearman

Lucy Pearman is one of the most inventive and original comedians in the UK, her shows are gloriously surreal, full of clowning, characters, props, audience interaction and ideas that feel like they’ve tumbled straight out of a wonderfully strange imagination.

Her one-off BBC Three original comedy, Please Help, was nominated for a BAFTA, and she won the Malcolm Hardee Award for Comic Originality.

We discuss exploring the vulnerability beneath the absurd, Lucy’s process of discovering characters onstage, how embracing strangeness is an act of connection, the reality of making art in our current economy, how the death of director Adam Brace impacted her creative process, the challenges of bringing clowning to a wider audience and is Lucy Pearman happy…
