HILARAPY is an uplifting web series that follows therapist-comedian Lizzie Allan as she pioneers a groundbreaking approach to healing for people in recovery from addiction. By blending clinical insight with the transformative power of laughter, Lizzie creates a safe space where participants can explore emotions, share their stories, and discover resilience through humour.

Across the series, viewers follow a diverse group of individuals who embark on Lizzie’s multi-week program, culminating in a live comedy show where they perform original stand-up routines. Along the way, they confront fears, challenge old beliefs, and find strength in vulnerability and community.

More than a therapeutic course, HILARAPY is a celebration of life, laughter, and the human spirit. By weaving together humour, heart, and authentic human connection, the series not only inspires but also breaks down the stigma surrounding addiction and mental health, showing how joy and creativity can open new pathways to recovery.
