About

Lucie is a writer and comedian hailing from Norwich, UK.

She began her comedy career in the basement of an Italian restaurant with Cambridge Footlights at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2011, and has gone on to write for audio, stage and screen.

A natural both sides of the camera, her pithy self-produced comedy shorts Solitary Individual and queer van man character Matt Glove swept social media for their irreverent, self deprecating takes on the queer experience.

Lucie’s comedy shorts are preserved in the prestigious BFI webfilm archive: a national archive capturing the breadth of online British moving picture since the 90s. Only a few hundred videos were selected. Five of Lucie’s sit among them.

Producer of sell-out queer & alt comedy night Degenerates, creator of award winning crowdfunded audio comedy Football Crumpets, episode contributor to the multi award nominated QueerAF & Trans+ History Week podcast, and presenter of her own five star rated confessional podcast, Lucie’s unique comic voice is unmissable.

Degenerates: Queer & Alt Comedy

Praise for Lucie’s live comedy night

  • What the industry says

    "Lucie’s night has that rare magic! A legit packed room full of warmth, laughter, and proper queer joy. It’s the kind of night you walk off stage buzzing from, because the crowd actually gets it"

    - Jeremy Topp, Queer Comedy Club

  • What the industry says

    “An absolutely vital night. The best kind of show to be booked for, where you would buy a ticket to watch it if you’re not on the bill. Gorgeous energy, everything that is good about comedy.”

    - Vix Leyton, Comedian

  • What the industry says

    "Degenerates is one of my favourite queer comedy nights to perform at. HIGH RECOMMEND 🩷🩷🩷"

    - Su Mi, Comedian

  • What the industry says

    "There’s no audience quite like a Degenerates audience. I always have so much fun at a Degenerates gig. One of my favourite and one of the most inclusive nights to play."

    - Sam Roulston

  • What the industry says

    “Degenerates is everything a local queer comedy night should be: inclusive, vibrant, somehow both nostalgic and progressive, all whilst being F*****G FUNNY. Carefully curated to reflect Lucie’s wicked sense of humour, make no mistake, this is no small town comic tragedy in the neglected basement of a pub; this is a consistent sellout night where both audience and acts are given the atmosphere and opportunity to thrive. See you there dear x”

    - Freddie Main aka Babs Romance
