The Sydney Comedy Festival Showcase is heading to Byron Bay. Expertly curated and lovingly presented, the Showcase will feature some of the Festival’s hottest acts live on stage for an incredible two hours of hard-hitting laughter.
The showcase features a huge and hilarious line up including: Dusty Rich – hailing from South Africa, this unconventional comic is spontaneous, full of energy, and an exhilarating experience; John Cruckshank – the laid-back king of deadpan who is a masterful observer of the everyday and every other day; Peter James – one of the best comedians to ever come out of Queensland, one half of the viral Peter & Shad Save The World podcast; Ting Lim – Singapore-born and a beloved favourite on the Brisbane comedy scene; Ben Hunter – freshly selected for the 2023 season of Comedy Zone at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, a talent to watch; and, Annie Boyle – the darling of deadpan in the Sydney comedy scene, fast becoming an undisputed star.
The Showcase will land in Byron Bay on 23 September for two great sets – a 5pm show and an 8pm show at the Byron Theatre. For more information, visit: www.byroncentre.com.au.
