SUMMARY:Anneli\, Caitlin & Suma - Dolly Doctor Lied to Us
DESCRIPTION:Puberty isn’t exactly a graceful time in anyone’s life.

Who did they think that they were going to be when they were teenagers\, and where did they wind up?

SUMMARY:Tom Gibson – Bored & Scared
DESCRIPTION:Tom Gibson spent his childhood alternating between feeling bored and feeling scared. Not that he’s complaining. His generation had better childhoods than this current crop of kids…or did they? \nTom bellyflops into the age-old debate about which generation had it best – but also hardest but also the most special but also the toughest – by calling out the contradictions\, cliches and complete historical re-writes of each side of the argument. Filled with hilarious stories about the pitfalls of youth\, the frustrations of adulthood\, and how to find inspiration to achieve your best\, this show will appeal to anyone who’s ever argued their childhood was the best…or worst. \nJoin Tom for an hour of fun and nostalgia as he delves into the shallowest of topics to uncover the least meaningful of insights in the most unnecessarily animated ways possible. And you never know\, somewhere beneath the trivial observations and silly jokes\, a deeper message may be hiding. \n(You do know. There isn’t.) \nPresented as part of Comedy ACT’s LOL Season featuring 10 shows over 3 days at the Courtyard Studio from 7 to 9 August 2025. \nDate: Saturday 9 August 2025\nTime: 7:30pm\nDuration: 60 mins \nVenue: Courtyard Studio\, Canberra Theatre Centre\nCost: $30\nBOOK TICKETS HERE

SUMMARY:Sarah Stewart – Midwife Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Sarah Stewart’s past 40 years have been a roller-coaster of birthing babies\, corralling a hopeless husband\, and wondering where her kids ‘parked’ themselves this time. Now\, on the wrong side of 60\, she’s traded delivery rooms for bucket lists and swapped forceps for funeral plans (organized in a Google Doc\, naturally).

SUMMARY:The Women’s Room – Underestimated
DESCRIPTION:They’re back for the third iteration of the Women’s Room at the Canberra Comedy Festival. They know what you’re thinking – is anything good on its third go? Take the movie Die Hard 3 – what was that about? However in this threequel\, Trish Hurley\, Tan Losanno and Jacqui Richards break the curse with their brand new show Underestimated. \nTrish Hurley has a new job – she’s the personality hire. She’s been travelling the world with her reluctant uni student son and a husband hell bent on getting the best deal ever. Tan Losanno is balancing her hormones and her teenagers (don’t ask). She’s marrying anyone who turns up after doing her duty by checking that they’re not being secretly coerced; and Jacqui Richards is dodging match makers and public servants whilst wondering whether her kids have actually ever told her the truth about anything. \nThey’re women of a certain age. They know what it is to be underestimated and it’s a gift. Who was it that said “Never underestimate women; there’s a good reason the queen is the most powerful piece on the chessboard”? \nThese queens of comedy draw on their busy\, active\, funny lives and dare you to underestimate them. \nPresented as part of Comedy ACT’s LOL Season featuring 10 shows over 3 days at the Courtyard Studio from 7 to 9 August 2025. \nDate: Friday 8 August 2025\nTime: 7:30pm\nDuration: 60 mins \nVenue: Courtyard Studio\, Canberra Theatre Centre\nCost: $30\nBOOK TICKETS HERE

SUMMARY:Sarah Ison – You Laugh\, Therefore I Am
DESCRIPTION:Back in the day\, Sarah Ison turned to the wisdom of Tumblr to “live\, laugh\, love” her way out of the creeping existential dread.

So she’s turning back the clock to the OG’s. No\, not Kelly Clarkson. From the classic thinkers of Plato and Socrates to the canine-obsessed Pavlov\, this uproarious stand up-sketch show takes you through hundreds of years of philosophy and psychology to answer the question all the great thinkers tried to solve: What the f***s the point? \nPresented as part of Comedy ACT’s LOL Season featuring 10 shows over 3 days at the Courtyard Studio from 7 to 9 August 2025. \nDate: Thursday 7 August 2025\nTime: 7:30pm\nDuration: 60 mins \nVenue: Courtyard Studio\, Canberra Theatre Centre\nCost: $25\nBOOK TICKETS HERE
