SUMMARY:Local Showcase 3
DESCRIPTION:A showcase of some Canberra comedy talent\, featuring 7 comedians presenting some of their finest material in a 1 hour show. Featuring Ethan Kirk\, Suma Iyer\, Daniel Mehareb\, Fateh Singh\, Laura Johnston\, Cameron Ribbons and Scott Hawkins. \nEthan Kirk – One of the youngest comics going around and is a regular in the Canberra comedy scene. As well as being a RAW state finalist\, Ethan was a National Finalist in the Melbourne Comedy Festivals ‘Class Clowns’ competition. Offering a unique perspective on being young in todays world\, he’s sure to have you in stitches! \nSuma Iyer – Takes her already unhealthy obsession with the minutiae of everyday life to some weird places\, including: her cats’ love lives\, mattress ghosts\, and the emancipatory potential of detachable showerheads. Her comedic style has the urgency and intensity of a woman with IBS who is still minutes away from her front door. It could all go quite badly. \nDaniel Mehareb – Daniel is a young and energetic 23 year old comedian who has been popping all over the Canberra comedy scene for the past few years. \nFateh Singh – Fateh only does stand-up to please his parents while nurturing a longing to be a prominent Tax Accountant. When not performing comedy\, he likes to write wistful poetry\, play the bass\, and practice pronouncing his own name. \nLaura Johnston – You don’t see a musical comedian who can’t read music everyday! Laura is also 0.5cm taller than her mother and an aspiring e-sports commentator. Ask her about e-fishing\, she dares you. \nCameron Ribbons – The reviews are in on Cameron and they are nothing short of spectacular. ‘Not funny’ – Mum. ‘Leave me alone’ – Dad. ‘Cash or card?’ – local Woolies worker. \nScott Hawkins – Office Worker\, Comedian\, Fast Food Drive Thru Philosopher? Join the 2020 ACT RAW finalist and Headliner of the sold out 2022 Canberra Comedy Festival show\, the Snyder Cut while he wastes time talking about things he finds funny and pointing them out for your ear viewing pleasure. \nPlease be advised that filming and audio recording will be taking place at this show. \nPresented by Comedy ACT as part of Off Season Comedy. \nTickets $20*\n*a Transaction fee of $5.95 applies \nBOOK TICKETS HERE

SUMMARY:Canberra Comedy Club featuring Jeff Green
DESCRIPTION:Canberra Comedy Club is presenting a couple of special shows at Transit Bar this September! \nThe Wednesday 21 September show features UK/Australian comedy legend Jeff Green\, with Carlo Ritchie in the MC role\, and supporting sets from Taylor Coughtrie\, Laura Johnston and Chris Marlton. \nAward-winning British comedian Jeff Green has been a much-loved presence on Australian TV and radio since he first hit our shores in 1996 for his debut Melbourne International Comedy Festival season. Now resident (he has an Australian wife\, some have accused him of social climbing\, but he disputes that)\, Jeff is hugely in demand in Australia\, the UK\, Europe and Asia. His impressive stand-up comedy background features a solo West-End season\, three full length UK TV comedy specials\, two Australian TV comedy specials\, and countless appearances on TV gala specials and comedy panel shows both here and in the UK – including Spicks and Specks (ABC)\, Good News Week (Ten) and the Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala (Ten). \nCarlo Ritchie is an improviser\, actor and writer. As one half of acclaimed improv comedy duo The Bear Pack\, he has sold out tours both at home and abroad\, notably at the Edinburgh Fringe and the invite only Cat Laughs festival in Ireland. Carlo has performed stand-up across his native Australia even as far as the remote desert opal town of Andamooka\,  the comedy capital of South Australia. As a complete disclaimer\, most of his stand up centres around the sinking of the RMS Titanic in 1912 or as we say in the business\, the ‘comedy goldmine’. In addition to being a regular guest in Dictionary Corner on SBS Australia’s Celebrity Letters and Numbers\,  his television credits include ABC’s Mikki Versus the World and Prank You Very Much and A Beginners Guide to Grief for SBS on demand.
