Melbourne Comedy Festival Roadshow line-up announced
The MICF Roadshow is revving up to start it’s long journey around Australia and beyond, and we’ve just found out which laughmeisters we’ll be copping in Taree.
It’s going to be a sensational year with a couple of well loved comedy icons and some hilarious newcomers as well.
Headlining are two National comic treasures: Cal Wilson (as MC) and Bob Franklin. Both have years of experience on the live circuit, as well as having graced TV and film screens here and abroad.
Cal Wilson came across the Tasman in 2003 and has gone on to become one of our most popular comedians, a perennial favourite on television shows such as Have You Been Paying Attention?, Spicks and Specks, Good News Week and Thank God You’re Here. Her stand up shows are as engaging as they are hilarious, often bringing the audience’s stories to life alongside her own.
Cal and Bob, two titans of mirth, will be joined by three special guests: Gillian Cosgriff, Tom Cashman and Singaporean star, Sharul Channa.
It’s going to be a corker of a roadshow, and there’s a great discount for groups of eight or more, so get a group of fun loving friends together and grab the best seats now at theMEC.com.au or by phoning 6592 5466.
Tickets also available at Stockland Forster.
Sienna Miller shines in “Cat On A Hot Tin Roof”
Tennessee Williams’ twentieth century masterpiece “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” played a strictly limited season in London’s West End in 2017.
Following his smash hit production of A Streetcar Named Desire, Benedict Andrews’ ‘thrilling revival’ (New York Times) starred Sienna Miller alongside, Jack O’Connell and Colm Meaney.
We’re thrilled to present the filmed production as our next OnScreen film on Tuesday May 15, with screenings at 10am (with free morning tea) and 7pm.
On a steamy night in Mississippi, a Southern family gather at their cotton plantation to celebrate Big Daddy’s birthday.
The scorching heat is almost as oppressive as the lies they tell. Brick and Maggie dance round the secrets and sexual tensions that threaten to destroy their marriage. With the future of the family at stake, which version of the truth is real – and which will win out?
Book now to see the performance described by The Independent as “A brilliant, lacerating account of the play...unforgettable.”
