Recorded before some complex health issues took her out of action, this conversation goes into depth on Elf's process, including how dealing with a horrible experience via bouffon clown allowed her to access a funnier self. We discuss what a rare bird is the audience, what parental pressure means to her, why you can't force meaning, and how to style out your weirdness.</p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"http://www.twitter.com/elf_lyons\" target=\"_blank\">@Elf_Lyons</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.theelflyons.com/\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.theelflyons.com/</a></p><p><br></p><p>&nbsp;Enjoy all extras from shows past and present with access to the private Insiders Club podcast, alongside a host of other strands and projects, including the chance to interview Stu yourself, and take part in a group critical analysis of newer acts from all over the world:&nbsp;<a href=\"http://www.comedianscomedian.com/insiders\" target=\"_blank\">www.comedianscomedian.com/insiders</a>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Stu’s 2019 tour of “End Of” has just gone on sale!</p><p>&nbsp;<strong>“A comedy masterclass… Endlessly inventive”</strong>&nbsp;(The List)</p><p><br></p><p>Tickets for the first half of the tour at these links:</p><p><a href=\"https://abercomedyfest.co.uk/show/2018/stuart-goldsmith-end-of/\" target=\"_blank\">22/02/2019&nbsp;</a><a href=\"https://norden.farm/events/stuart-goldsmith-end-of\" target=\"_blank\">Maidenhead – Norden Farm</a></p><p><a href=\"https://norden.farm/events/stuart-goldsmith-end-of\" target=\"_blank\">01/03/2019&nbsp;</a><a href=\"http://thepoly.org/whats-on/event/946/stuart-goldsmith\" target=\"_blank\">Falmouth – The Poly</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.wiltshirecreative.co.uk/whats-on/salisbury-arts-centre/stuart-goldsmith/\" target=\"_blank\">13/03/2019 Salisbury Art Centre</a></p><p><a href=\"http://thepoly.org/whats-on/event/946/stuart-goldsmith\" target=\"_blank\">29/03/2019&nbsp;</a><a href=\"https://tinyurl.com/y9ozpnlj\" target=\"_blank\">Crawley -The Hawth</a></p><p><a href=\"https://tinyurl.com/y9ozpnlj\" target=\"_blank\">05/04/2019&nbsp;</a><a href=\"https://www.readingarts.com/south-street/whats-on/stuart-goldsmith-end\" target=\"_blank\">Reading – South Street Arts</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.warwickdc.gov.uk/royalspacentre/events/event/1224/stuart_goldsmith_end_of\" target=\"_blank\">12/04/2019 Leamington Spa - Royal Spa Centre</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.readingarts.com/south-street/whats-on/stuart-goldsmith-end\" target=\"_blank\">17/04/2019&nbsp;</a><a href=\"https://oldfirestation.org.uk/whats-on/stuart-goldsmith-end-of/\" target=\"_blank\">Oxford Old Fire Station</a></p><p><a href=\"https://oldfirestation.org.uk/whats-on/stuart-goldsmith-end-of/\" target=\"_blank\">19/04/2019&nbsp;</a><a href=\"https://www.artrix.co.uk/whats-on/all-shows/stuart-goldsmith\" target=\"_blank\">Bromsgrove – The Artix</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.artrix.co.uk/whats-on/all-shows/stuart-goldsmith\" target=\"_blank\">27/04/2019&nbsp;</a><a href=\"https://www.barbicantheatre.co.uk/event-details/?eid=62428\" target=\"_blank\">Plymouth Barbican</a></p>","author_name":"Stuart Goldsmith"}
