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. With a joke per minute rate rarely seen on a stage\, Sean is a comic that will stay with you for a while. A barrage of genuine funnies this irreverent\, curious non-conformist recounts truths from his life while cleverly dismantling shallow rituals\, vacuousness\, tokenism\, popular culture and self-help mumbo-jumbo. \nBoth of these guys are worth the price of admission on their own\, throw in locals like Sophie Rutzou\, Anthony Tomic and more and you have yourself a night of non-stop laughter. \nTickets are selling fast\, so get in quick. See you in the Bunker.

SUMMARY:LolPol with Simon Bower
DESCRIPTION:A staple of the Canberra comedy scene for the past four years\, Simon Bower is the annoying little brother you never had. He giggles at his own jokes\, he’s bad at girls and he’s writing this bio in third-person like a pretentious ass. But he’s also disarmingly honest and willing to tell very embarrassing stories about himself in order to make strangers laugh\, even having done so in sellout shows at the Canberra Comedy Festival\, Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Adelaide Fringe Festival.  \nSo come down to Polit Bar to get to know Simon Bower a little better\, if only so you can learn from his mistakes (and laugh at them\, of course). \nFeaturing the Holy Grails Anthony Tomic\, Ellie Windred and Harris Stuckey. \nChris Ryan MC
