About this listen

 THE HEARTFELT AND HILARIOUSLY FUNNY AUTOBIOGRAPHY FROM STAR OF STAGE AND SCREEN, JOANNA PAGE, INCLUDING HER LIFE BEHIND THE SCENES OF GAVIN & STACEY.

From the small village of Treboeth on the outskirts of Swansea to the sets of some of the all-time greatest movies and TV shows - like Love Actually and Gavin & Stacey - Joanna Page's journey to stardom has been extraordinary.

In this funny, candid and endlessly surprising memoir, Joanna shares her story in full for the first time. Inside, Joanna looks back at her early life growing up on the glorious Welsh coastline - a life (not unlike Stacey's) filled with family and friendly neighbours - to the sudden shock of moving to London at 18 (totally alone) to take her place at RADA, one of the most prestigious performing arts schools in the world. Before taking readers behind the scenes of her most iconic roles and introducing them to a colourful cast including Ruth Jones, James Corden, Richard E. Grant, Johnny Depp, Liam Neeson and Emma Thompson.

Whether she's navigating early awkward auditions, chasing her big break, getting used to life on set with comedic consequences, falling in love, or discovering the magic and madness of motherhood, Joanna speaks openly about what it really takes to make it in the acting world while staying true to yourself.

An unforgettable read that makes you laugh and cry, Lush! is a celebration of finding your voice, holding your ground and learning to laugh at the messiest, most beautiful moments life has to offer.©2025 Joanna Page Entertainment & Celebrities Entertainment & Performing Arts Film & TV Performing Arts Funny Feel-Good Heartfelt Thought-Provoking Witty

A delight to listen to whilst painting artwork. I have to put my brush down a few times at the carrier bag escapades to wipe away tears of laughter! Fabulous - thank you.

So sunny funny and perfectly Welsh.

What a great, honest, raw, funny and sad book all in one. Joanna had me laughing throughout and crying through the Gavin and Stacey final. What a pleasure to be able to listen to Joanna’s life and her family, and to hear all about her fabulous career. I must say the s**t in the carrier bag was by far the funniest story ever. Thank-you for putting this great book out there.

Absolutely brilliant

But I also enjoyed the truth. & openness Joanna gave to us in her book . Absolute joy to read & the audio is Lush . Thank you so much Joanna x
