The Green Room with Tiana Speter

Commanding attention back in 2013 in the 2013 National RAW Comedy finals, Becky Lucas has since gone on to become a comedic force to be reckoned with. From sold out solo shows at home and abroad, Lucas has performed at some of the biggest venues around the world, alongside some of the biggest names in comedy, including Conan O’Brien, Nick Kroll, Jim Norton, Beth Stelling and many others.

From the Sydney Opera House to The Comedy Cellar in New York and beyond, Becky’s irresistible knack for fusing relatability with razor-sharp delivery is gimmick-free and punctuated elegantly by her sparkling wit; and when she’s not onstage dishing out the laughs, she’s also written a novel, written for TV, appeared in TV shows, and holds the bragging rights as being the first female Australian to feature on Conan O’Brien’s late-night talk show (where he also told her she needed meds after her performance).


In 2021, Lucas took to the stage in-between Melbourne lockdowns to host the prestigious Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala, and 2022 is already shaping up to be a big one, including an appearance in March at the Super Fun Day Festival in Brisbane, a comedy and music festival bringing together some of the most beloved talent in the country into one amazing day of laughs and riffs. But before this year comes to a close, Becky Lucas stops by ‘The Green Room’ to chat life as a comedian, fun times in general and also the time both Becky and ‘The Green Room’ host Tiana Speter saw Gotye get mad onstage at a festival.
