Pyramids. Hieroglyphs. Spells. Few civilisations capture the imagination quite like Ancient Egypt: a world of mystery, magic and mildly concerning burial practices. Now, award-winning comedian and amateur Egyptologist AJ Lamarque (Celebrity Letters & Numbers, ABC Radio Evenings) invites you to unwrap the myths in a crash course 5,000 years in the making.
After selling out across the country, AJ is back with an encore of his hit adults-only show that’s the history class you wish you got in school. Expect gods, pop culture and a few historically questionable practices along the way.
The show has been updated since Fringe last year, so if you saw it then, there’s heaps more for you to learn this year! You can also check out his new hour A Beginner’s Guide to the Universe at Gluttony.
