I first became aware of Zoe Lyons a couple
of years ago when she was part of The Monkey Butlers sketch group,
then last year as 1/3 of AAA Stand Up, together with doing small
roles in shows like Topping and Butch partly due to her looking
similar to a certain ex-PM’s wife, and thought this lady has
‘it’, so was pleased to see that she was back this year doing a
one woman show Fight or Flight.
Zoe opens the show talking about fears,
her own, her audience’s and others that she canvassed her friends
for. She has a whole repertoire of stories mostly relating in on way
or another to fear, the dark, Ryan Air, education, coming out,
commitment, war, snakes and guns
are just some of the subjects that that Ms Lyons has material
on, and also no pun intended, fuzzy felt!!
The crowd I saw had a front row comprising
of 15 year olds with us more mature people sitting further back but
she seemed to relate with all age groups and her set finished all
too soon.
I’m sure she will be a major force in the
very near future so take this opportunity to catch her show while
you can.
