Lizzy Hoo is many things – a noodle enthusiast, designer, sports lover, and rescue greyhound owner.
Lizzy is also a stand-up comedian, presenter, writer, and actor – And over the last few years has become one of the most in demand and hilarious live performers in Australia. You may have seen her on Network 10’s Have You Been Paying Attention? and The Cheap Seats, a guest on ABC’s Question Everything and The Weekly, Channel Nine’s The Hundred with Andy Lee and SBS’s The Cook Up with Adam Liaw. Her stand up has also appeared on numerous Melbourne International Comedy Festival Galas broadcast on the ABC and Just For Laughs Australia on Network Ten.
In 2022, Lizzy released her stand up special Hoo Cares on Amazon Prime Video worldwide to great acclaim, including a nomination for Best Stand-Up Special at the 2024 AACTA’s.
Lizzy is a master of mining her life and family into material that leaves audiences left wanting more. A hilarious, self-assured, observational-style has resonated with comedy-goers around the world, with Lizzy’s stand-up clips garnering millions of views online.
It’s been a sharp rise to stardom, having only given stand-up a go for the first time in 2017, as a way to gain more self-confidence in the work place. Safe to say it worked out pretty well.
With each passing year, Lizzy has been exponentially growing her audience to sold out houses around Australia, while exponentially stretching the ability to use her name as a pun with shows such as Hoo Dis?, Hoo Cares, Woo Hoo and most recently Deja Hoo.
