Claire is just funny. She will greet you with a warm smile that reaches her eyes.
Yet she can sit in the silence; craves it. This was something I understood completely.
I thought this chat was going to be about comedy (and it is in part), and creative process (it is in part) but something that really stopped me was the relationship of social media. The understanding of the role it plays in promotion of not just the comedian and show but the para social relationship with people BUT more than that; identifying that it's just not good for her.
So how do you get around it? On one hand you need it, on the other it's not good. Some things are just private.
Claire is in the middle of the Melbourne Comedy Festival. Peak funny times in Melbourne!
I am so glad she gave up time to sit with me and share with you, but also to share so vulnerable.
For this I am grateful. I am curious now- I wonder what her garden is like at home?
Enjoy the episode.
Luv Kate
