He’s trained with the SAS, gigged on Everest, and won the Adelaide Fringe Award three and a half times.

No shit.

The Howling Owl

Life Through a Black Eye is stand-up from a Ghanaian man living in Australia who’s spent enough time on the outside to notice that the inside is absolutely unhinged. With sharp storytelling, beautifully bad decisions and a perspective that’s both observant and gloriously inappropriate, Akwasi takes everyday life, race, culture, relationships and the weird little rules of modern society, then looks at them from an angle most people wouldn’t even think to stand in. Smart, silly and just the right amount of dangerous, Life Through a Black Eye is a night of big laughs, wild detours and the kind of comedy that makes you think, “He probably shouldn’t say that” right before you laugh anyway.

Do You Know Who I Am? is a smart, funny, and unexpectedly uplifting stand-up show about family, identity, and the emotional baggage we all carry.

In this show, Daniel Fernandes blends sharp observations with personal storytelling to explore life’s winding roads, the things we inherit from our parents, the patterns we repeat without noticing, and the quiet ways we grow up over time.

It’s comedy that’s thoughtful without being heavy, dark without being bleak, and honest without ever losing its humour.

Whether you come for the laughs or the perspective, this is a show that stays with you long after the lights come up.

Accessible, intelligent, and deeply relatable makes for a comedy experience you do not want to miss.
