Tambar then organised Joan’s first ever UK/Eire tour where she performed to similar acclaim in Manchester, York, Cambridge, Torquay, Cardiff, Brighton, Birmingham and Dublin.
Laurie did a week long workshop at Steppenwolf assisting enormously in developing the role of Sugar Cube in Steven Froelich’s play Weekend in Rio which played a year later at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
