Ep.5 Lucy Hopkins | SPACE(s)

Lucy Hopkins is a clown and intergalactic soul explorer. I'm not sure quite how to describe her. I first met her at her show SCRT CRCL that was on at midnight every night of the 2018 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. A ceremony of stupidity and permissiveness and laughter, all delivered in The Magical Spiegelyurt. I fell in love instantly with the show and probably went 5 nights in a row. Lucy and I catch up and talk about everything firstly in the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh (until we got thrown out) and then in Greyfriar's Kirk - where they tried to throw us out.Check her out here: https://www.lucyhopkins.com/Upcoming Secrt Circl in Sheffield on Friday 8 Novhttps://performancevenues.group.shef.ac.uk/events/secrt-circl/Upcoming Art of Being an Idiot - 2 day workshop in Sheffield Nov 9&10: https://performancevenues.group.shef.ac.uk/events/the-art-of-being-an-idiot-intensive/And the Blundabus and Spiegelyurt in Harrogate nov 11-16:https://www.harrogatetheatre.co.uk/news/posts/2019/october/the-spiegelyurt-is-whirling-into-town/Lucy's FB page:https://www.facebook.com/lucyhopkinspage/You can see her here in the wonderful The Mind of Herbert Clunkerdunk from BBC Three. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p07gy9m1/the-mind-of-herbert-clunkerdunk-series-1-3-adrThis episode's word is: SPACE(s) - a continuous area or expanse which is free, available, or unoccupied.Before that I talk about the tour, last week's gigs, inclusivity in music/art and having temporomadibular joint dysfunction.
