Comedy showcase hits town

The funniest comedians from this year’s Sydney Comedy Festival are hitting the road and bringing the best of the fest to our doorstep.

The Sydney Comedy Festival is Sydney’s biggest annual comedy event and its showcase tour arrives in Noosa on Thursday 10 October.

Every April/May, hundreds of the world’s funniest comedians take to stages across Sydney to entertain an audience of more than 120,000 people.

The festival is one of Sydney’s fastest growing cultural events and every year aims to offer a bigger, better or more diverse program to satisfy Sydney’s rampant appetite for comedy.

With the goal of sharing comedy with the masses outside of Sydney, the Festival started the Sydney Comedy Festival Showcase Tour in 2013 visiting regional and metropolitan areas and in 2018 produced more than 50 shows over five months to 20,000 comedy fans.

The showcase is a two hour gala style show hosted by an MC with a diverse range of comedians hand-selected from the festival, performing a variety of comedy from musical maestros to deadpan comics to absurdist acts we thrive on the quality of acts takem to regional Australia.

The showcase features a huge and hilarious line-up including:

· Randy: Award-winning, purple and felty.

· Ron Josol: Award winning and praise deserving performer of an international calibre.

· Luke Heggie: His hilarious no-nonsense brand of comedy has made him one of the most in-demand comics in Aus & awarded him the coveted Director’s Choice Award for Sydney Comedy Festival among many others.

· Rebecca De Unamuno: Master of improv and regular across all your fave TV shows.

· Dusty Rich (ZA): Hailing from South Africa, this unconventional comic is spontaneous, full of energy, and an exhilarating experience.
