S2 Ep3 Gigging Online plus chat with Lucy Orchard.
So the world is currently in hiding from Covid-19 and performing comedy on stage is currently on hold until the pubs and clubs open. Many clubs have gone online, including Rough As, but what is it like? I have some hints and tips plus I chat with Lucy Orchard who has done a ton of online gigging. I had a really fun chat with Lucy, I hope you enjoy it and let us know how you're getting on in the quarantine either through facebook or Anchor.
