In Trust Me, I’m from Essex, Lindsay Lucas-Bartlett will take you on a journey through life growing up in notorious Essex, England. From going to an all-girls Catholic school, rejecting the “typical blonde” Essex girl stereotype, wreckage at home, a sexual assault and then a tragic suicide in the family... to finally realizing her dream of living in Los Angeles and creating a new home of her own. Enjoy this fun-filled journey with laughter, singing, and down-right drama.

This show could not have squeezed any more emotions out of me if it tried. Lindsay is so engaging; you feel like you are right there with her on the rollercoaster of life. So many relatable things made me laugh, as I am a 90s baby myself. Then, you share the challenges of adolescence and the unspeakable hardships of adulthood before witnessing the resilience of the human spirit, which leaves you with a sense of hope for the future. I do hope Lindsay brings another show to EdFringe, as I would definitely come to see it.

Awesome show. Lindsay takes you through a roller coaster of emotions as she shares the touching stories of her youth until present day. I laughed, I cried and I thoroughly enjoyed the show. Very cleverly put together, with lots to relate to, but she is also brutally honest about past trauma and, despite this, how there is still so much to look forward to.
