The Bellydancing Backpacker
Hello! My name is Lucy. I am a British performance artist, writer and bellydancer with impulsively itchy feet; making hilarious, slightly chaotic but surprisingly poignant theatre and performance. I spend my time running away, exploring new places and throwing myself into situations that scare me. I’m always working on new, unusual creative projects and I love meeting people and discovering the real stories behind different places, however difficult or challenging these may be.
Currently, I live between the UK and Cairo, Egypt and most recently I worked on an educational project in Ukraine (October 2022).
I’ve been awarded the New Wave theatre writing award to develop and perform my one woman show ‘How to Run Away’ at the Bloomsbury Festival 2023 in London. Watch this space for more information!
2023 is THE year!
