Bryan Safi: Are You Mad at Me??
Emmy-winner Bryan Safi (star of ABC's 9-1-1, Netflix's You, Attitudes!) brings his distinctive voice to this solo comedy spiral all about queerness, confidence and the art of being unapologetically too much. A beloved comedian, podcaster and performer, Safi dives deep into big laughs, big feelings, terrible flirting and one aggressively horny apartment that might just steal the show. It’s a hilarious and heartfelt journey from one of comedy’s sharpest voices. After sold-out shows in LA and NYC, the spiral continues. If you've ever felt like "a lot", this one's for you.
Killian Sundermann: This Boy is Cracking Up
Killian Sundermann always dreamed of being a rock star. Though his shower renditions of Bohemian Rhapsody haven't quite catapulted him to fame, his comedic talent certainly has. Join him as he takes his sold-out Irish tour show to the Fringe. With rave reviews, Sundermann has gained recognition across platforms, including appearances on RTÉ, Virgin Media Ireland and the Young Hot Guys Podcast. He also boasts a massive following of over half a million online fans.
Annie Boyle: Smooth Criminal
Following the success of her critically acclaimed debut solo show Annie Are You Ok? Annie returns with Smooth Criminal. This comedic confession of her first arrest explores how the silly, the serious, and the surreal intertwine in life – and in comedy. If you'd been there, if you'd seen it... you would've done the same. Annie Boyle is one of Australia’s most exciting rising stars in comedy, renowned for her involving storytelling and deadpan charm. A RAW Comedy State Finalist, she has performed in the prestigious Comedy Zone showcase at Melbourne International Comedy Festival and recently appeared in the award-winning comedy series Colin From Accounts.
Holly Spillar: Tall Child
Tall Child is an hour on the impossibilities of being alive right now. In this age of insecurity, in a cost-of-living crisis, we're all stuck in the shit so let's wade through it together. Armed with nothing but a little red loop pedal and her ever-growing rage, Holly Spillar is looking for the catharsis only art (made by low-income people, working two bad jobs on minimum wage) can provide.
Grace Jarvis: Just Because I'm Crying Doesn't Mean I'm Not Having a Nice Time
A new hour of stand-up comedy from the Antipodes' most verbose and melancholy good time gal. Grace Jarvis is excited to regale audiences with her tales of living overseas, falling in love, working in a sex shop and getting into notable scrapes on public transport. As seen on Comedy Up Late and Upfront. Tour support for Josh Thomas.
Kate Owens: Cooking with Kathryn
Award-winning comedian Kate Owens presents her smash hit, critically acclaimed comedy show. Meet Kathryn: the "star" of her own community cookin' show, wannabe Nigella Lawson, and down-home southern belle with more wine in her veins than Jesus. She's serving up a wacked-out fricassee of absurd recipes, but the main course will be a reckoning with her troubled past and a chaotic encounter with a member of the congregation (maybe it'll be you!).

Dirty Work
Mary Floppins has thrown a shit fit. Wipe the wee from the toilet seat and pick up your dirty undies, because The Perfect Nanny is back to teach all you little boys – and girls – a thing or two about running a prim and proper household. Hailed “a rising star and quadruple threat” (Australian Arts Review), Jessica Barton combines a spoonful of song, dance, clowning, and deep-cleaning to present a skanky and empowering Edinburgh Fringe debut. BEST NEWCOMER AWARD WINNER (Melbourne Int. Comedy Festival 2025). TAKE A CHANCE ON ADELAIDE AWARD WINNER (Adelaide Fringe 2025).
