About me
Elf Lyons is an award winning stand-up comedian, live artist, theatre maker and director based in London.A regular performer and M.C on the UK comedy circuit, Elf at the age of 25 has already performed all around the world at leading arts festivals in the UK, Europe and Australia.
She loves creating work that is relevant, political and joyful and mixes her vulnerabilities, her niche geeky interests and her sass to create fun, action packed quests for her and the audience, often resulting in a huge fun mess on stage.
She has recently returned to the UK after spending a year studying at L'Ecole Philippe Gaulier in Paris.
Additional skills:
Elf has just completed a year's study at Ecole Philippe Gaulier with modules including: Mime, Le Jeu, clown, Bouffon, Personagge, Neutral Mask, Greek Tragedy, Mask, Moliere, Melodrama, Shakespeare and Chekhov.
Additional information:
"Enthusiastically peculiar [...] endearingly eccentric [...] her strangeness, her vulnerabilities and her sass make a pretty engaging package. Lyons’s debut certainly achieves her main aim of showing sexy, nerdy and funny aren’t mutually incompatible"
Steve Bennett, Chortle, Edinburgh Festival
"Lyons is endearingly eccentric on so many levels. She has a knack for fostering the desire to be her new best friend."
FEST Magazine, Edinburgh Festival
"A stand-out Fringe show from a vibrant and energetic performer [...] An hour packed full of sexiness, nerdiness and amusingly awful attempts at different accents [...] with an excellent astronaut striptease"
★★★★ The Skinny, Edinburgh Festival
