In 2014, Lana was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. So she went and wrote some jokes.

'Let me start by telling you I’m ok. I’m just in a small  situation involving a pesky cancer tumour in my left nork, but I’m not dying and I’m the luckiest person in the entire world. Cos f*ck cancer, man. F*ck cancer.'

Jokes, truths, and one or two poignant bits from a Melbourne comic who survived breast cancer.

‘Hilariously honest’

‘Gutsy and gleeful’
- Theatreview.org.nz

‘Uproariously funny, devastating and heartfelt, Schwarcz doesn’t want her audience to have a good bedside manner but to behave as badly as she does' - TheResidents.co.nz  

"A tour de force that absolutely everyone not afraid of boobs needs to go see. It‘s hard to explain just what Lana has achieved with this show, but she has taken this taboo subject and made it comedy; cathartic, real, honest comedy." - Theatreview

"Smart, funny, empowering... you'll fall in love with the unstoppable Lana Schwarcz"
- Inside Ottawa

"A veritable feast for the senses, a cleverly built show that never fails to surprise. I laughed and cried. It was beautiful, hilarious, entertaining, heartbreaking and raw with honesty and emotion. Amazing."
- Art Murmurs'

HELP FUND THE TOUR!!
Due to recent cuts to Australia Council for the Arts and Creative Victoria, Lovely Lady Lump has never been funded. To help send the show overseas we're asking people to contribute a little something something right into this fully Tax Deductible fund at the Australian Cultural Fund. It's almost EOFY, so if you have some spare dollars that your business needs to legally burn else the ATO collect them, burn them right here:

Otherwise, I hear Panama has some good lawyers for that kind of thing.
