Disgraceful

Disgraceful is a hilarious journey into the life of a woman who is, and always has been, shamelessly disgraceful and - despite being 'a woman of a certain age' - has no intention of stopping any time.
Through a mix of storytelling, stand up, music and sketch comedy, Lucy shares tales of her misspent youth, her ill-mannered childhood and her evident refusal to go quietly into middle age.
You may initially think that Lucy’s disgracefulness is on par with many other mere mortals, but as the stories mount you'll realise that she takes it to Olympian levels.
Disgraceful was produced with mentorship from award winning cabaret star Tash York. The show has had successful runs in Melbourne in 2022 and as part of Adelaide Fringe Festival and North Australian Festival of Arts (NAFA) in Townsville, in 2023. Lucy is thrilled to bring Disgraceful to Sydney for Sydney Fringe.
Audience comments include "I snort laughed..." and "I laughed so much a bit of wee came out.."! You have been warned!
Lucy's advice for life is "If you find yourself staggering home in the early hours, sleep deprived and with a head full of fun memories, then it doesn't need to be the 'walk of shame'. It can be the 'strut of sass'!"
