The last time Jude and Scotty teamed up and hit the road it was 2017 with Disappointments, which sold more than 70,000 tickets nationally and won the 2017 Melbourne Comedy Festival’s People’s Choice Award.

In Still Here, the pair tackle the big lockdown questions: how many meals can I eat in one day? Do I have a drinking problem? (Specifically, if I go to the toilet in the middle of the night and on my way back to bed I stop and have a gin and tonic, does that mean my drinking problem has gotten worse? Or does it mean I’m living my best life?) Will I ever wear a bra again? Should I trim my goatee or go the full on beard?
Join Jude and Scotty for what could loosely be called a play, described as Waiting for Godot meets Flying High.
“At last something to shave my face for! Can’t wait to embrace Scotty, some show business and our audience-not literally obviously that would be repulsive for everyone involved,” Lucy says.
“Judith has frozen shoulders, can’t use her arms. I have arthritic knees, can’t use my legs. I’m excited to be Jude’s arms. She’s thrilled to be my legs. We’re ecstatic to be back, together as one, on stage loving ourselves and our audiences sick,” Scott adds.
Tickets on sale Wednesday 12 January, 10am.
