Notes
Johanna Lyon; cheeky, soul-bearing grub is an actor and cabaret comedian dedicated to laughing with others. After graduating with her Bachelor of Creative Arts degree in acting from USQ, she undertook further study (honours) to devise and develop new work. More recently Jo premiered her second full-length solo cabaret, ''Borishiva: Bad to the Bone" in the Festival Circuit to punter and critical acclaim. This oddball is most interested in discussing and unpacking why humans do what we do concerning love and discrimination. She aims to achieve connection between strangers within her work. Jo’s goals for the future include her work in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, to work with mentors from the comedy and theatre industry, to produce comedy on film and to continue making people cackle. Has Social Security Number: Able to work in U.S "A raucous, rambunctious and loquacious gift for storytelling" - Scott Alderdice, Theatre Director "The intelligence at which she approaches her work is astounding. Jo is a constant thinker and deeply analytical" - Josh Lyons, Co-Founder of Share House Theatre Company.
