time we’ve got a map.

‘Vagina: The Visitor’s Guide’ is based on the premise that even those of us who own vaginas know so little about them that we may as well be renting. (Pop quiz: Do you know when the clitoris was first mapped by anatomists? The 1950s? Or even the 80s? It was in 2005!)

‘Vagina: The Visitor’s Guide’ is a funny fact-based guided tour through the history and science of the vagina. Well, not the vagina, but the vulva – which is the whole thing, not just the hole thing. For owners of vaginas, visitors to vaginas, and anyone who is vagina-adjacent.

Tarang Hardikar is a standup comedian popular for his unique observational style of comedy. Tarang brings to you his new comedy hour full of anecdotes about his bizarre childhood and his peculiar habit of questioning every minute aspect of life. Why has no one ever seen a growing coconut tree? Why is the biggest prize in sports a cup? Why didn’t you keep the paneer in the fridge?

This show is therapy for real estate agents and a safe place for property tragics.

“Jodie J Hill’s show is a real-estate triumph. Very funny from start to finish with clever and witty insight into the bizarre world of selling houses and the ‘thruth’ about what goes on behind the scenes. Highly recommend.”  Jane Gazzo, Broadcaster

“Great night. Big laughs. The t-shirt auction was the best of comedy I’ve seen in years. I’m sold.” – Tony Moclair, 3AW

Cath Styles has been a psychiatric nurse for 36 years, and a comedian for 20 years. Between the two jobs, she’s never had a weekend off. EVER!

This is the show where both her worlds collide, and explores her on again, off again, mostly dysfunctional relationship with her (paying) job.

The dark, beautiful, sad, and sometimes just plain hilarious side of trying to help people hold on to their sanity, while desperately trying to keep a grip on your own, ‘Shift’ is a collection of touching (and twisted) tales of an enduring 36 year fling with psych nursing, flavoured with the dark humour of those on the front line.

A must see for nurses, patients, and everyone in-between, from a big heart with a black sense of humour.

Come join Cath on evening shift – so she can write this off on tax!

Podcast host, parent and one of Australia’s fastest-rising comedians, Thom Lion serves a laugh-out-loud mix of music, mayhem, and modern survival. Half-asleep, fully committed, Thom tackles awful conspiracy theories, parenting chaos, and questionable medical procedures with piano, ukulele, and belly laughs big enough to make you forget your own issues.

After surviving years on commercial radio at the KIIS and Hit Networks, Thom is now a writer & host at Mamamia – while deploying his songwriting in the comedy arena with a bang!

With songs tackling everything from asthma to Insta boyfriends, Thom Lion creates an unhinged and strangely uplifting look at the bizarre world we’re participating in today, he shows audiences why the only sane response is to laugh, sing, and maybe cry a little.

Inside jokes or “in-jokes” are jokes that are only understandable to people of a particular social group.
The social groups this comedy show is for
-People with active internet connections
-People with/without jobs
-North Koreans and also South Koreans I guess
-People whose Instagram and TikTok algorithm have betrayed them
-Fans of travelling
-Fans of bed rotting
-Mid 30s people who have started running
If u belong to any of these social groups, come to the show cos I think you’ll enjoy it. If you don’t belong to these groups, come anyway and grow as a person please.

Chewed up and spat out by the advertising industry, but still swilling around in the mouth of comedy like a fine wine.

Ads suck, so this ex-award-winning copywriter and RAW Comedy national finalist is making things you actually want to see.

Maren loves sending songs she likes to her friends and lovers but she is starting to think that maybe they don’t always listen to them? So she wrote a show about that.

This show is a love letter to music through a neurodivergent lens but you can view it through any kind of glasses, or none at all, it will still be enjoyable.

If you ever listened to the same song on repeat for hours on end, and didn’t even exaggerate when you say ‘hours on end’, this is for you.

“A sharp eye for the absurd” Australian Arts Review

A Cosmetic Nurse pursues perfection. A Comedian thrives on flaws. Rachael Hornbuckle is both and she’s going Skin Deep with her dark, hypnotic comedy, birthed in rough QLD pubs and delivered in a born-for-Melbourne package that’s part glamour, part bogan, full comedy savage. Skin Deep explores self-worth, vanity, beauty, chaos, and comebacks — a show about smoothing out the flaws we can’t hide.

“An undeniable stand-out from last year’s Comedy Zone, Hornbuckle couples an absorbing stage presence with politically charged quips to lustrous effect. Her final joke might just be the best one-liner at this year’s festival.” Funny Toones

Not to be missed.

Join Louisa for a hilarious severe weather briefing on her 9 year drought, detailing the ups and downs, or, more accurately, lack of ups and downs, of her rainless-but-joyful existence.

Sashi’s family name – Perera – means pear tree in Portuguese. It’s a common name in Sri Lanka where Sashi was born but never lived. Till a series of pear-shaped events saw her move back to where it all began with her white Australia husband in tow.

‘Pear Tree’ is a stand-up comedy show about that. It traverses family, love, legacies, homes, knives, race, cats and kids – spliced with a little geopolitics and singing. As with her last show Boundaries (now on YouTube), Sashi’s signature observational humour remains dedicated to taking absolutely nothing too seriously.

Sashi is a comedian, writer and recovering lawyer. Sri Lankan born and Australian raised, she’s now one of Australia’s fastest rising comedians, known for her sharp wit, unique international tales and bizarre insights.
