Author Bio
Tabby Lamb is a writer and performer based in East London and a graduate of the Theatre Directing course at Dartington College of Arts. Equally inspired by Carly Rae Jepsen and Tennessee Williams, she strives to tell stories that explore the intersections between popular culture and politics. Her debut solo show Since U Been Gone, which Tabby wrote and performed, premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2019 after previewing at the Gate Theatre. The show was spectacularly received by audiences and garnered a glowing four-star write up from The Guardian, who called the play bold, honest and swollen with love. Tabby was part of the Soho Theatre Writers' Lab and the LGBTQ Arts Review #RaisingOurVoices scheme for queer and trans writers. Alongside her passion for writing, Teddy is a facilitator and runs creative arts projects for young people from the LGBTQ+ community.
