SUMMARY:Sean Woodland - The White Dog
DESCRIPTION:Winston Churchill coined the phrase ‘The Black Dog’. More obscurely\, Sydney comedian Sean Woodland presents The White Dog. If you’ve ever wondered what Ted Bundy\, anti-vaxxers\, car saslesmen\, Tai Chi exponents and people who wear Bintang singlets have got to do with ‘man’s best friend’ you’ll love his show. Weirdly\, the same applies if you haven’t. \nYou’ll walk out of The White Dog wary of charm\, charisma and elderly pilots\, but loving dogs more than ever. As for guinea pigs\, you’ll still be indifferent towards them.  \n“**** Has more than the average number of laughs up his sleeve…Do Woodland and yourself a favour and get along.” – The Adelaide Advertiser \n“His understated punchlines and observations will resonate for a long time” – RipitUp \nWinner ‘Quest for the Best’\, Australia’s richest comedy competition.\nWinner – The iconic Crows Nest Hotel comedy competition in\nRunner-up in the nationally acclaimed Green Faces comedy competition. \n$20 All tickets \nCLICK HERE TO BUY TICKETS \n

SUMMARY:Kirsty Webeck - I Get It Now!
DESCRIPTION:When Kirsty Webeck was 27\, she realised where her 1st grade teacher had been going each day when she said\, “I’m going to the ladies’.” She wasn’t abandoning 22 six year olds to have a chat in the front office after all. \nAt her last office job\, she told her boss she’d just interviewed her client ‘in the biblical sense’ and had no idea why he looked mortified. \nFor someone who prides herself on knowing what’s going on\, she gets plenty of things wrong. Her brand new show is the hilarious culmination of all the things she thought she got at the time…but really didn’t. \nCLICK HERE TO BUY TICKETS
