Batch Bitch: Danielle Walker’s Myths & Legends
Danielle likes stories. Like she ‘like likes’ stories. Like she loooooves stories, not in a sicko way though, she just thinks they’re fun. It’s called Myths and Legends because two of my comedy bits are about mythological creatures.
For example: Tom Jones = legend, cool dads = myth.
I would love to talk more about my show but my mind is elsewhere because I just watched an episode of Extreme Cheapskates and one lady wrapped a lasagna up so it was waterproof and cooked it in the dishwasher with her dirty dishes.
Previews start March 28th, shows everyday (except Mondays) through to April 21st – more details & tickets!

Don’t You Know Who I Am?: Josh Earl’s Josh Talks
A man (Josh) talks for almost an hour to an audience (you). He’ll probably be wearing a stripy t-shirt.
Josh Earl is an award-winning stand-up comedian who has hosted TV Shows (Spicks and Specks), breakfast radio shows (3RRR Breakfasters, Lime Champions), and is currently the host of the super popular podcast Don’t You Know Who I Am? (one million+ downloads).
Josh Earl Talks tells the true story of how Josh, up until the age of 12, struggled with talking and being understood which resulted in a lot of money being spent on speech therapy. And now he talks for a living. Where is his Australian Story?
In a first for Josh in the Comedy Festival this show is just him talking. No guitar, no singing, no music. Just Josh and the funniest hour of stories he has.

TOFOP: Wil Anderson’s Wil-informed
Wil Anderson is fronting up for his 23rd Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 2019 with his brand-new show Wil-Informed.
Wil’s reputation for delivering an outstanding, brand-new hour of comedy every year speaks for itself. He has sold out Melbourne’s Comedy Theatre for the last 11 years which surely has to be some kind of record.
Not content to bask in the glory of such achievements, Wil steps up each year with a show that is an improvement on his last – which makes him pretty damn close to the very best we have.
His shows are simply unmissable for lovers of smart, fresh, quality comedy. Melbourne International Comedy Festival is Wil’s favourite festival in the world and the feeling is quite mutual. Don’t miss what is bound to be his finest show yet.
Dates from March 27th through to April 21st (except Monday & Tuesdays) – more details & tickets!
