Look Busy

When the robots have taken our jobs, what on EARTH will we do with our time?

In this solo interactive comedy, Judie fires her confetti-cannon of a brain at AI, automation, and the future of work. Through a whirlwind of wit and joyful irreverence, Judie tackles topics like universal basic income, the value of leisure, and the absurdity of modern labour. Expect stand-up, storytelling, and a touch of the bonkers—all delivered with big laughs and bigger ideas.

Following her critically praised Apocalypse Kapow, Judie returns with a show that’s part TED Talk, part comedy chaos. Think Sarah Millican meets Black Mirror, and you’re getting close. With props like a spacehopper to discuss economic perspective and interactive moments that invite the audience to ponder their own relationship with work, Look Busy offers a fresh, funny, and hopeful take on the end of work as we know it. Audiences describe it as “Strangely comforting”, “Original” and “Profound” (Audiences) “Not just funny... an utter joy” (Comedian Rosie Holt)
