Amelia Jane Hunter

From Berlin basements to Brunswick, Amelia Jane Hunter unleashes comedy, kink and chaos.

Award-winning, wickedly original, and seriously funny! Chartering a span of freedom and the unstoppable adventures of a 50-year-old woman chasing the perfect lighting and sausage condiment – Exquisite Pervert is a comedy cabaret inspired by the basements of Berlin, beauties of Barcelona, and one woman’s quest to reignite the power and purpose of love.

‘This is a tour-de-force of defiant attitude, a clarion cry to be proud of who you are and not be confined by convention’ – Chortle 2024.

Originally from Australia, Amelia now lives and loves between Berlin and Barcelona.

Described by Time Out UK as, ‘A brilliant tour de force of laughter-filled mischievous comedy’, Amelia is riveting, ribald and completely uncensored. A trained actress and comedian with solo shows that have earned her comedy awards, bad dates and sold-out crowds worldwide.

Winner of Thessaloniki Fringe Festival 2024, Melbourne International Comedy Festival Awards, Sydney Comedy Festival Directors Prize, Edinburgh Fringe Total Theatre Award and former Northern Territory bushwalking guide, Amelia returns to Australian stages with a show about the joys of corrupting, kink and compassion.

‘On stage she is a force of nature: confident, in-your-face and opinionated. She prowls the stage like a caged animal as she tells her tales of a world that restricts such a free spirit. It’s wonderful to witness her storytelling in person: using poetic language so that all are rapt, only for her to floor us with a hysterical comment as a punchline. It’s akin to snarky footnotes scrawled in the margins of a classy novella’ – Squirrel Comedy, Australia.

‘She’s empowered in every aspect of her untamed life, lived to its fullest’ – Chortle UK.

For one night only – Thursday, April 24 at 7pm at the Brunswick Picture House.

Tickets from brunswickpicturehouse.com.
