SUMMARY:Comedy Club at The Civic Pub featuring Michael Workman
DESCRIPTION:A Barry-nominated stand up who can kill in any club in the world; a creator of gentle\, intricately crafted stage fables; an artist and composer with a filmic range and intensity. \nIn 2009 Michael Workman was crowned national champion of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival’s Raw Comedy competition\, a coveted prize which attracts more than six-hundred entrants each year. The following year\, he starred in the prestigious Comedy Zone showcase\, and brought his debut Festival show The Ogre to Sydney and Perth\, where it won the Wild West Comedy Festival award for Best Show. \n In 2011 Michael’s Melbourne debut Humans are Beautiful took out the MICF Best Newcomer award\, and received significant critical acclaim. The show also toured to Sydney Festival and to Edinburgh that same year. \n2012 saw Michael become more experimental\, producing the multimedia narrative comedy Mercy\, which won ‘Best Comedy Show’ at Adelaide Fringe and was the only comedy to receive an award for excellence in the Sydney Fringe.Mercy also toured to Perth\, Melbourne and overseas to Edinburgh\, wrapping for the final time in the Soho Theatre\, in London’s West End. The show was also filmed and aired on ABC2 for the Warehouse Comedy Festival series. It was one of the most popular episodes in the series\, and the DVD was released that same year.  \nMichael’s beautiful and highly anticipated new show Ave Loretta made its official debut in the 2013 Melbourne International Comedy Festival and quietly stormed into the list of Barry nominees. Ave Loretta also toured to the 2013 Sydney Comedy Festival\, and then to Perth Fringe World in late January 2014\, garnering impressive reviews for all seasons.  \nAlthough primarily known for his exquisite festival shows\, Michael is also a visual artist\, a voiceover guy\, a composer/musician and a knockout stand up. He regularly appears on the club circuit and in 2013 and 2014 toured regional NSW and Queensland with Sydney Comedy Festival Roadshow. He was also invited to be part of the prestigious Just For Laughs Gala at the Sydney Opera House. Performing with some of the best stand-up comedians from all over the world\, Michael appeared on stage in The Stand Up Series\, and his spot was also part of the series broadcast on the Comedy Channel.  Michael also turned his hand to writing for the second series of the ABC TV’s show Tractor Monkeys\, and played a guest role on Peter Helliar’s hilarious ABC-TV series\, It’s A Date. \n2014 saw Michael return to the Perth\, Sydney and Melbourne International Comedy Festivals with a new show – War – which the Herald Sun described as a “collision of unlikely concepts and Workman’s beautifully crafted\, lyrical language… the signatures of his unusual and totally magical comedy.” \nMichael continues to find new fans all over the country with his killer club spots\, and is currently developing a prequel toAve Loretta based on the exploits of the show’s apocryphal band\, The Soviet Waltz. He also toured his new work for festivalsWe Have Fun\, Don’t We.  \nAn exhibition of his visual art at Marios Café coincided with his festival season at the 2015 Melbourne International Comedy Festival. \n  \n“People need to go and see Michael Workman”The Pun \n  \n“His attitude\, and his thoughtful imagery\, sticks with you long after you’ve left the venue. Impressive stuff\, indeed.”Chortle \n  \n“Must see territory”Timeout Melbourne. \n  \n“Workman is clearly a precociously talented comic”Timeout Sydney \n  \n“Equal parts brilliant and bizarre\, Michael is one of the most original voices on the scene in years. If Nick Cave did stand-up it would look like this.” Wil Anderson \nThe show will be hosted by Jay Sullivan\, with supporting sets from Cy Fahey\, Anthony Tomic\, Ian Worst and Maddy Weeks. \nCOST: $15 (plus $0.30 booking fee) pre-booked\, or $18 at the door if still available. \nPLEASE NOTE: Online sales close at 7pm on the day of the show. \nCLICK HERE TO BOOK ONLINE

SUMMARY:Uni Pub Comedy with Ramshackle Fiasco
DESCRIPTION:Fresh from there Sydney Comedy Festival run\, RAMSHACKLE FIASCO are putting the show on in Canberra.   The A-Team of laughs\, presents a night of comedy from four of the nation’s hottest stand-ups. After touring festivals and comedy rooms of Australia with their individual shows\, the team is back together for a combined show so big it almost doesn’t fit. \nRamshackle Fiasco are: \nTom Gibson \n“Amazing to watch…an eye-opening moment of revelation about how good comedy can be.”\n– Riot Act \nTom Gibson is a comedy renegade who has been blasting his way across Australia for the last decade\, leaving comedy rooms in tatters and audiences rolling on the floor in hysterics. Unorthodox but effective\, buckle up and enjoy his dynamic brand of comedy magic. \nHamish Hudson \n“This guy will be the next Tim Minchin.”\n– Austen Tayshus \nHamish Hudson has been performing hilarious songs about nothing everywhere from Melbourne Town Hall to The Sydney Comedy Store and the Boorowa Ex-Serviceman’s Club (don’t ask). This smooth-talking song man has won several premier comedy competitions over the years\, including ‘St Kilda Just for Laughs’ and ‘The Hot 5’. \nEmo Parsonson \n“Emo lived up to his impressive billing…having the audience in fits of laughter.”\n– Melbourne International Comedy Festival \nEmo Parsonson is an ex-shearing comedy maverick and father of three hailing from Wee Jasper. Is there anybody else in the world who can say that? No. His clean material and sharp observations make a night out with Emo a riot of laughter. \nChris Ryan \n“Cleverly juxtaposed humour..and visual jokes…\nwith amazing results.”\n– Scissors\, Paper\, Pen \nChris Ryan oscillates between boozy slacker relaxed and Defcon 5 levels of anxiety\, as she attempts to navigate day to day life. Bamboozled by failed suburbia and the horror that is the workplace\, Chris’ wry humour makes herself and others laugh at this crazy mixed up world. \n  \n

SUMMARY:LolPol with Ian Worst
DESCRIPTION:Ian Worst is not a comedian as he is more a ‘New Millennial Word Artist.’ His jokes are not jokes but rather splashes of paint across the canvas of the human condition. That is of course in a universe where the human condition consists entirely of eating Arnott’s Cheddar Shapes and smoking rolled cigarettes outside the Phoenix. Since exploding onto the Canberra comedy scene ten months ago Worst has received no critical reception whatsoever and has performed to sold audiences at the Canberra and Melbourne Comedy Festivals on gross technicalities. Audience members have claimed that Worst’s hilarity cured their common colds. \nIan will be supported by local baby geniuses Ellie Windred\, Nick Smith and James McMahon. MC Josh Glass \nTickets $7 online or $10 at the door.

SUMMARY:Bunker Comedy presents David Smeidt and Sean Woodland
DESCRIPTION:Righto folks\, Bunker Comedy 2016 is back on May 14 with a fantastic double header featuring David Smeidt and special guest MC Sean Woodland. \nSmiedt has been delighting audiences around the country and overseas with his brand of warm inclusive comedy for over six years and is now one of Australia’s finest comedian MCs and corporate performers. David is a regular on television shows such as Mornings with Kerri-Ann Sunrise\, The Today Show\, Ready Steady Cook and having appeared on Stand Up Australia he is also the author of six humorous books. \nWoodland’s material is classic comedy\, with his relentless rapid-fire delivery of well-crafted jokes always a winning formula.

See you in the Bunker.
