Lucy does Art

I am a performer, producer, writer, and designer, working in various techniques, including puppetry, video collage, and the art of *surprise*. My overarching aim is to carve out realms for expression, interaction, and liberation within human connection. Despite often delving into dark themes, my work serves as a beacon guiding audiences toward a future illuminated by love and acceptance, employing elements of comedy, absurdism, and beauty. My work resides at the intersection of drag, clowning, audience participation, and aesthetics, championing the idea that art, particularly theatrical performance, thrives in a collaborative environment where the success of one hinges upon the collective achievements of all.

​

I am driven by the belief that societal transformation, particularly in dismantling oppressive structures, necessitates community, optimism, and compassion. I strive to depict not only the current state of societal issues but also envision a future where these dynamics undergo positive shifts. By fostering a collective vision of change and utilizing teamwork as a catalyst, I create spaces that encourage self-expression, nurture the inner child, and pave the way for healing and evolution.

Born and raised in Florida, I moved to New York at 17 to attend New York University - Tisch School of the Arts. I studied at the Meisner Studio before training in Amsterdam at the Experimental Theatre Wing's International Theatre Workshop. There I met one of my current long-term collaborators, Bailey Nassetta, and I began honing my physical comedy and devised theater skills. I am a member of SlugFest Theatre, a collective of artists that specialize in clown, and have been producing, writing, and performing my own work since 2019.  I am currently exploring the medium of performance art and installation. Catch me every third Wednesday at The Idiot's Hour! :)
