Winner of Just for Laughs’ “Outstanding English Comedy Award” Laura Piccinin takes audiences on a hilarious out and proud ride in her autobiographical stand-up show, LESBIHONEST.
Laura Piccinin recounts a lifetime of coming outs in a tell-all comedic stand-up story hour. This hilarious and sentimental autobiography reflects on a single journey that spans 3 decades of change in perceptions and treatment of LGBTQ+ people. As an ex-religious Queer Laura grapples with a shifting identity and unease in sense of self, eventually navigating her way to Pride.
“Part stand-up part personal storytelling Piccinin stands behind a mic and tells us her coming out stories. Sharply observed tightly delivered - and finding laughter in the pain - for an entertaining and insightful out and proud ride”. - Cate McKim, Life with More Cowbell Just come. It'll be funny.
