Lucy Montgomery's Variety Pack

A multi-paced, one-woman Fast Show showcasing the exceptional talents of Lucy Montgomery

'Full of surprises' The Telegraph

Fresh from her success in Tittybangbang, Down the Line and Bellamy's People, human chameleon Lucy Montgomery stars in her very own radio sketch show, packed with comic characters galore.

Meet Maisie and Daisy, the posh private school girls with a unique way of explaining popular culture; jilted bride Wendy, who's determined to give her wedding speech despite her groom's absence; and 'Can-do Candi' Karmel, the 80-year-old diva who won't let old age stop her performing. There's also the acupuncturist who's determined to ensure her clients are relaxed, the humble Cockney charlady who knows her place, and the police officer who can't find the right words.

Find out why the Mona Lisa's been dumped by the Laughing Cavalier (and why Peter Andre is the most dangerous man in the world), hear an alternative take on Gardeners' Question Time; learn how to talk to teenagers in a language they'll understand - and discover the many perks of being Tim Vincent's mum...

Written and performed by Lucy Montgomery, this witty, wonderfully-observed sketch show also features Philip Pope, Sally Grace, Waen Shepherd, Natalie Walter and Iris Walker.
