Comedian Judith Lucy is getting ready for a national tour and she’s got a big question to ask Australia, is it time for her to just give up on dating altogether.
Judith Lucy is single again… and fifty. After reflecting on her entire history with men, she’s concluded that maybe it’s time to shut up shop.
“Whatever it is that I’m selling, a lot of straight guys simply aren’t that interested in buying it. And I’m including people like my father.”
Judith will be travelling around the country with her brand new show in 2019, exploring stereotypes, her own desires and recounting her full history with the opposite sex, leaving it up to the audience to determine whether she should ever date again.
Should Judith hang up her vagina for good? Australia, the decision is yours.
A national comedy treasure, Judith Lucy is a household name. She has a back catalogue of live shows that have made hundreds of thousands of Australians whoop and howl with laughter over the better part of 30 years and has carved out a reputation as one of the most rivetingly honest, assured and hilarious comedians this country has ever produced.
Judith Lucy Vs Men will be Judith’s first solo show since Ask No Questions of the Moth took home the prestigious Helpmann Award for Best Comedy Performance in 2015. The show was also cherry-picked by STAN and recorded for their hugely successful One Night Stan stand-up special series.
In 2017, Judith teamed up with good friend Denise Scott to create their critically acclaimed, smash-hit show Disappointments, which saw them sell more than 70,000 tickets nationally and win the 2017 Melbourne International Comedy Festival’s People’s Choice Award.
You can give your advice to Judith when her national tour comes to the Heath Ledger Theatre at the end of May 2019.
