Lucy Best: Unbelievable
Most people have an unbelievable, fantastical story from their life—the kind that makes others question if that really, truly, happened. Thanks to an unconventional life, Lucy Best has collected more than most.
In this one-woman storytelling show, Lucy unpacks a treasure trove of hard to believe but true tales.
Lucy will take you on a rollercoaster ride through the embarrassing, the unexpected, and the sometimes hilarious moments that make up the rich tapestry of her life.
Do you know anyone else who held a baby dolphin as it died?
Or was expelled from boarding school?
Did you know bisexuals are actually real?
Lucy will share deeply personal true stories about these things and more.
