Lizzy HOO

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 Have You Been Paying Attention?, The Weekly, The Hundred with Andy Lee or The Cook Up with Adam Liaw. Her stand up has also appeared on numerous Melbourne International Comedy Festival Galas, the 2025 RAW Comedy Final and Just For Laughs Australia.

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) for material that inevitably leaves audiences wanting more. Her hilarious, self-assured, observational style has resonated with comedy-goers around the world, with her stand-up clips garnering millions of views online.

Now the host of her own weekly podcast – The Lizzy Hoo Show – she’s helping her guests open up about the chaos of life, in a time where no one has it all together.

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 workplace. Safe to say it worked out pretty well.
